Communication Strategies for Families and Caregivers

Communication Strategies for Families and Caregivers is a FREE, on-line training for people who are supporting an adult loved one who is living with a serious mental illness. This training is meant to provide information and teach strategies for building strong communication skills and designed in short modules, to fit into a caregivers’ busy schedule.

This foundational training is being used by the FACTS Program team to test whether this type of online, on-demand approach and content is useful for families and caregivers, before we expand to more detailed, diagnosis specific trainings. Family and caregiver input will be used to guide all trainings, support services and resources offered by the FACTS Program now and in the future.
