We are excited to announce the launch of NAMI Homefront Mental Health Resources for Military Service Members, Veterans and Their Families, a free online suite of resources designed to increase understanding, communication, wellness and advocacy skills.
When NAMI Homefront was launched in 2014, the program was intended to address the unique needs of families, caregivers and friends of military service members and veterans experiencing PTSD, traumatic brain injury and other mental health conditions. But the classes remained closed to service members and veterans themselves. Year after year, NAMI was continually asked to offer resources or programming tailored to these communities as well.
With this new resource center, we have expanded the reach of NAMI Homefront to caregivers, family members and military service members and veterans. Users can access the information and support 24/7, both in the U.S. and when stationed overseas.
Accessible through computers or mobile devices, the resource center includes information about:
We’re honored to be able to offer these resources to our military and veteran communities, especially as we recognize Veterans Day Thursday, Nov. 11, and pay respect to all those who have served.
If you or someone you know could benefit from these resources, we encourage you to sign up today at homefrontresources.nami.org.
