9th Symposium on Open Dialogue Approaches to Engagement with Mental Health Communities

"A Viable Alternative in an Uncertain World"

21st January 2016, 09:30 – 16:30

School of Nursing & Human Sciences, Dublin City University

This annual symposium convenes as part of a national mental health initiative to enhance capacity amongst mental health service users, family members and coal face mental health practitioners to change the way people experience and respond to mental health difficulties in Ireland.

The symposium is aimed at service users, family members and mental health practitioners associated with mental health/therapeutic service provision. There is no charge for participation and delegates will have an opportunity to purchase their own refreshments within the venue or elsewhere.

There are a limited number of places available and participation is normally dependent on groups of three applying (a service user, carer/family member and mental health practitioner) as one. It is not necessary for a group to have a family and/or service connection with each other.
