The Haida Gwaii Strengthening Families Together educational program is a FREE six-session program designed to help families and friends build a clear understanding of mental illness and gain confidence using practical tools to support someone they care about.

The program explores psychosis, schizophrenia, mood and personality disorders, along with treatments, side effects, substance use, and the impact of stigma. We will gain supportive connections while developing skills in communication, crisis planning, stress management, and advocacy.
