We chose the name All IN for our family support because this definition resonated with us and so many family members we spoke to.
When Talking with Others Might Just be the Additional Support you Need

​
This Peer Support Group is open to anyone who is supporting someone with their mental health and addiction struggles. To us, family means what it is to you.
“The idea of recovery is approached from a slightly different perspective. The family member strives to recover from the emotional turmoil, grief, and/or fatigue that may result from caring for someone with a mental health challenge or illness. The family members path to their own mental wellness or recovery is likely to be enhanced by a better understanding of their loved one’s illness and through the development of more effective coping skills. Greater confidence, accepting the situation, and having hope for their loved one will help them to be more effective caregivers and supporters. While also helping them to sustain their own wellbeing."
