I've been a member in two. One in Minneapolis and the other in Austin, Tx. The north one was well run and quite active. They helped me find affordable housing. The one in Austin was just starting out and was finding its way. I didn't go often although they served very health lunches for a buck. There were drop in centers in Austin too but they tended to be for lower functioning people. Where I live now has nothing. No NAMI for except for family. No bipolar groups. No clubhouse, not a thing.
