About the course
Homefront is a free, 6-session educational program taught by trained family members of service members and veterans with mental health concerns. It is built on the foundation of NAMI's flagship Family-to-Family class, but customized to address the unique needs of family, caregivers and friends of those who have served or are currently serving our country.
In Homefront, you will:
• learn about current mental health research, treatments and evidence-based therapies;
• plan to care for yourself and support your family member with compassion;
• pick up techniques for navigating challenges that impact the entire family; and
• prepare to manage crises, solve problems and communicate effectively.
As an outgrowth of Homefront, NAMI also offers an online suite — accessible to anyone — of health, wellness and recovery resources for veterans, military service members and their families.
