Hi all,
We were just asked a few minutes ago to publicize this! Phyllis and I did a panel on this topic and on her book at last year's Alliance (formerly NYAPRS) Annual Conference and a few of you won copies of the book as raffle prizes this year. Phyllis references us and a number of movement leaders and past conference speakers in her book.

Fighting for Recovery
By: Phyllis Vine
October 31, 2023 2pm ET/1pm CT/12pm MT/11am PT

We've heard the statement "Nothing about us without us!" but do you know the many activists' stories behind it? Author Phyllis Vine will discuss the sweeping history of activist movements in grossly underserved and misunderstood mental health communities. Hear stories of former psychiatric patients, families, and courageous activists within government and psychiatry who rebelled against inhumane and outdated treatments and policies and created the path that we are on today. Since the middle of the last century, people with a lived experience have upended conventional beliefs that deterioration was inevitable. With an abiding pursuit of choice, they opposed the use of force and built a movement with innovative service options. They focused on person-centered needs, the development of skills with respect
for strengths, and situated their work within broad-based fights for equity and social justice.

Learning Objectives:

  *   List 4-5 leaders who worked and organized to create peer services.
  *   Identify 3-4 historic locations of peer services and alternatives to institutionalization.
  *   List the 4 principles of recovery championed by leaders that have led the movement.
  *   Describe a call to action for today using the historical context of the movement.
