There is a new support group in Central Vermont. NAMI Connection is a recovery support group for people living with mental illness in which people learn from each other’s experiences, share coping stategies and offer each other encouragement and understanding.

The group will meet on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month at the Kellogg Hubbard Library in Montpelier at 6 p.m. in the East Montpelier Room.

For more information, call the NAMI-VT office at 800-639- 6480. The first meeting will be on Thursday, January 7.
