Support Groups

Empire Mental Health Support offers in-person facilitated peer sessions that provide support through lived experience. We educate others how to navigate the local mental health resources available, and help them find a path to mental wellness.

It's important to us that we listen to your stories and experiences of living with a mental health diagnosis.

Disclaimer: Our support groups are led by trained facilitators who have lived experience. We are not mental health professionals.
