Supporting a loved one with serious mental illness is challenging, especially during hospitalization. The FACTS Program bridges the gap by providing evidence-informed information, resources and skills training specifically for families and caregivers*. We recognize your vital role in recovery and invite you to check back often as we expand our toolkit to support your journey.
*“Family and Caregiver” includes anyone in an unpaid, supportive relationship (parents, partners, friends, neighbors) actively engaged in their loved one’s recovery.
