FAMILY-TO-FAMILY TEACHER TRAININGS
NAMI Colorado is presently looking
for volunteers who would be interested in training to teach the
NAMI Colorado Family-to-Family Education program. To be eligible, you must (1) be a
family member or caregiver of an individual having a
mental illness, (2) be a member of NAMI Colorado, and
(3) commit to teaching two 12-week Family-to-Family
courses within a 2 year period. Since this training
is a weekend training, you must plan to stay overnight
on both Friday and Saturday nights at the hotel.
Hotel check-in is at 9 AM Friday, and the training
begins at 10:00 AM on Friday and ends on Sunday at 3:00
PM. Costs for lodging, meals, and materials will
be provided for by NAMI Colorado. This is an intensive
training and you must attend all 3 days in order to
receive your Family-to-Family teacher certificate. If
you are interested in taking this training, please contact
Cheri Bishop at 303-518-1289, or by
email at cbishopnami@aol.com.
NOTE: The next Family-to-Family teacher training is scheduled for September 10-12, 2010.
