Veteran Peer Support Services
At NAMI Multnomah, we offer free one-on-one peer support for Veterans. These services are offered free of charge to Veterans and military service members across Oregon, regardless of discharge status.
If you have any questions about this program, contact the NAMI Multnomah HelpLine at 503-228-5692 or info@namimultnomah.org.
For information about training to become a Peer Support Specialist, see our page here.
Our Veteran Peer Support Specialists use their personal experiences with military culture, mental health challenges, and recovery to support and inspire hope in other Veterans.
