News from NAMI Butler County

Please join us for the next NAMI meeting to hear local speakers, get answers to questions, share stories and find support. The featured presentation begins at 7:00 p.m.

November's featured speaker is Lea Menninger from Northland Intervention Center, a physician-driven treatment program that specializes in drug and alcohol addiction and dual diagnosis (mental illness and a drug/alcohol addiction) treatment. The facility is located in Milford, Ohio. While dual diagnoses is a common and very difficult condition to treat, Northland Intervention's philosophy works to restore hope to families by helping patients achieve sobriety and long-term recovery through its individually tailored outpatient services for adolescents, adults and their families. Our November 19th program will highlight how they have successfully worked toward achieving this goal since 1984.

*There will be no NAMI meeting in December.

Happy Holidays!

NAMI Butler County has recently started a support group for graduates of our Family to Family signature program. The purpose of this group is to offer continuing support to anyone who has graduated from the program. We meet and talk about what is going on in our lives right now, share information and coping techniques, and in general provide each other with support that enriches our lives.

Join us on the first Thursday of every month and find out for yourself how rewarding it can be to laugh, cry and share. Meetings are held at 7:00 p.m. at the NAMI office located at 5963 Boymel Drive in Fairfield.
