NAMI-TC sponsors the FTF and VFT programs for family members who want to learn more about mental illness.  We strongly urge everyone with a family member with mental illness to enroll in a program for better understanding of the illness.  Please contact us at namitc@peoplepc.com for further information.

Helpline Support

We have both a NAMI-TC message phone center, 817-332-6600, and an NAMI-TC message email center, namitc@peoplepc.com, for anyone who wishes to call/write for information or help.  A Helpline Committee member picks up the messages daily and returns the calls or emails.  NAMI-TC can help with referrals to many places where one can receive needed services, or sometimes just lend a friendly and sympathetic ear to someone who has a problem they need to discuss.
