~US Consumers’ Summit Meeting~

The US National Mental Health Consumers’ Self-Help Clearinghouse is sponsoring a National Summit of Mental Health Consumers and Survivors on 25-29 August 1999 in Portland, Oregon. The summit will be a forum for consumers and survivors to come together, discuss concerns, and organize their ideas into a strong, collective voice that can influence debate on emerging issues in the national arena. The Clearinghouse urges interested people to participate in this effort to build a united national advocacy initiative. For information, contact:
