Share your lived experience to help other families by becoming a NAMI Basics teacher. NAMI Clackamas is seeking volunteers to teach NAMI Basics. If you have lived experience of raising a child or adolescent with a mental health condition, this is a great way to give back and help other families facing similar challenges. NAMI Basics is a free six-session class for parents and other family caregivers of children and adolescents who have either been diagnosed with a mental health condition or who are experiencing symptoms but have not yet been diagnosed. It is taught by people who have been there--who have parented a child with a mental health condition.
Requirements include taking the Basics class and then attending a Basics Teacher Training
