1. Psychosis Summit 2. Peers for Progress www.peoplewho.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue, 23 May 2017 09:32:42 -0700 From: Sylvia Caras <[email protected]> Subject: Psychosis Summit We are a group of people who have lived experience with psychosis and their families and friends. After witnessing firsthand the many difficulties associated with psychosis as a result of stigmas, we created an advocacy and support organization called South Bay Project Resource. This online Psychosis Summit is our 2017 initiative aimed towards strategically raising awareness on treatment methodologies, and support approaches, for helping peers dealing with psychosis and their families. Psychosis Summit consists of interviews and talks, a new set of programs will be added every few months. We believe that through providing the public with up-to-date information and personal recovery stories surrounding psychosis that will reduce stigma, and in-turn connect peers experiencing psychosis (and their supportive family members) with the appropriate resources available to them.We hope this initiative will not only benefit local communities in the Bay Area of California, but globally as well. https://www.psychosissummit.com/ "People Who experience mood swings, fear, voices and visions" ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 May 2017 12:59:56 -0700 From: Sylvia Caras <[email protected]> Subject: Peers for Progress Peer Support Around the World http://peersforprogress.org/ Powered by LSoft's LISTSERV(R) list management software ------------------------------ End of IRIS Digest - 11 May 2017 to 25 May 2017 (#2017-19) **********************************************************
