Just Parents

Just Parents holds monthly meetings structured as follows: 

  • Meetings for Just Parents (hosted by NAMI Mercer)  are being held in-person at the NAMI Mercer Center on the third Monday of each month from 7:00 - 8:30 pm. Registration is required.
  • Meetings are confidential and offered at no charge for parents/caregivers;
  • Meetings are open to any parent/caregiver concerned about their kids (ages 0-24) who are struggling with anxiety, depression, mood dysregulation, or other emotional, behavioral, or mental health issues;
  • A child does NOT need to have a diagnosis for a parent/caregiver to benefit from meetings;
  • Meetings are organized and led by a trained facilitator who is a parent or caregiver with lived experience raising a child with a mental health condition;
  • While the dialogue is facilitated, meetings' content is driven by the needs of the parents in attendance;
  • Participants collaborate to share experiences and resources;
  • The center/the meetings do NOT provide childcare.
