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

BCSS Northwest is running in-person Family Support Groups for family members and close friends who are supporting a loved one with a severe and persistent mental illness. It is open to anyone in the Northwest area. This includes Terrace, Kitimat, Kitamaat Village, Prince Rupert, the Nass Valley, and surrounding areas.

BCSS Family Support Groups offer 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, and they provide support and resources to family members and caregivers of individuals with a severe and persistent mental illness.
