In this episode of Recovery Radio, Steve Martorano sits down with Amy Federer, the Office & Special Projects Coordinator for NAMI's Philadelphia branch, to shed light on the lifelines available through the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).

She also touches on the collaboration between NAMI and Retreat Behavioral Health, highlighting how these partnerships amplify their reach and impact.
Amy's own journey through recovery is a beacon of hope, reminding us all that help is just a call away. Whether you're struggling yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with valuable information and heartfelt encouragement. Tune in and discover how NAMI's programs can be a game-changer in the path to recovery.
