I hope to be there myself in person to participate. I work for Gallery Gachet, an artist run centre determined to also create dialogue and break stigma around mental health issues. Every year, we celebrate Mad Pride by having a big arts festival at Gachet for the month of July. Here's the Facebook invite, if you can pass on the details about this to everyone you know, and I will spread the word about the Camp!

Change thinking and language of mental health and illness. We may change structures and models but not our essential beliefs, and so the myths and stigma remain. On the other hand, as long as it is possible for any of us to become marginalized from our communities; as single mothers, as elderly, as infirm or injured, there will be fear. A certain amount of shame, external assumptions and loss of freedom are inevitable. Ending Stigma? Change thinking and language of mental health and illness.
