Consultation Meetings on Vision for Change


Tuesday April 10, 2012
Consultation Meetings on Vision for Change
The Independent Monitoring Group of A Vision for Change, the National Service Users Executive and Mental Health Reform cordially invite you to a consultation meeting on the implementation of government mental health policy to date.
The events will take place on Monday, 16th April in the Castletroy Park Hotel, Limerick at 10.00 am and on Monday 30th April in the RDS, Ballsbridge also at 10.00 am.
The Independent Monitoring Group aims to take stock of service users' views on implementation in order to inform this year's report on the implementation of A Vision for Change. It is now eight years after the Expert Group responsible for drafting A Vision for Change first held consultations with service users and four years before the implementation deadline.
The implementation of A Vision for Change has generally been described as torturously slow with much progress still needed in order ot achieve full implementation by 2016.
The meeting will provide a forum for honest debate on how far the mental health services have come since publication of A Vision for Change in 2006.
As numbers are limited, please confirm your attendance by calling 01 6121411 or emailing rsvp@mentalhealthreform.ie.
We look forward to seeing you there.
Kind regards
Jennifer Kelly
Chairman
National Service Users Executive
