NAMI Vermont emphasizes peer-led support groups and free programs

Christina Petter, program coordinator at NAMI Vermont, said peer-led support is a central part of the group's services and that the organization provides two distinct support-group tracks: one for people living with mental health conditions and one for family members. "All of them are free for participants," she said.
Petter explained peer facilitators are trained volunteers with lived experience, either as people with mental health conditions or as family members. She framed support groups as a way to reduce stigma and connect people to resources and broader statewide services.
