Do you have a friend or family member living with mental illness? – You are not alone 

BCSS Interior Region is running in-person Family Support Groups for family members and close friends who are supporting a loved one with severe and persistent mental illness. 

It offers a safe and supportive environment for family and friends to share, ask questions, and connect with others who are also supporting a loved one with mental illness or substance use disorder. Family Support Groups are led by trained facilitators or educators.
