‘Hearing Voice and Giving Choice’: Peer Support and Networking for Self-Advocates and Families

Venue: Gibson Hotel, East Wall, Dublin 1

Date: Saturday 15th June 2013

Time: 9am – 4pm

The 2013 AGM & Annual Conference will focus on Peer Support and Networking, with the morning session split into two separate events – one for families and one for Self-Advocates. In the afternoon, both groups will come together for the resolutions and AGM business. A full programme will be available shortly, but the emphasis will be on families and Self-Advocates sharing experiences and is a move away from the traditional ‘conference’ style format.
