Welcome to NAMI Midland County, MichiganNAMI of Midland County is an affiliate of the National Alliance on Mental Illness, also serving surrounding counties and communities.

Monthly Support Meetings |
Our support meetings are divided into two sections held at the same time in separate rooms: Peer Connection Support Group for individuals living with mental illness and Family Support Group for family members. This encourages privacy and ensures that all those attending the meetings are surrounded by people who have lived through similar experiences and can relate. Knowing you are not alone, that there are people who understand what you have lived through, can be incredibly empowering.
