People with lived experience of BPD will present and participate in panel discussions alongside professionals and community members to increase dialogue about BPD. This groundbreaking event will include:
* Prominent speakers and attendees from across the nation.
* Theater, music, art, and poetry workshops.
* Access to BPD education, resources, exhibitors, and community chats.
Now more than ever, people affected by mental health disorders like BPD need hope. Up to 70% of those diagnosed with BPD experience suicidal thoughts, and COVID-19 has made it even harder to access care and resources.
Emotions Matter is a volunteer run 501c3 non-profit organization founded in 2015. Its mission is to advocate, educate and support people impacted by borderline personality disorder (BPD). It offers BPD peer support programs, empowering events, stigma-free educational materials, videos and workshops. Emotions Matter's vision is to create a world in which every person impacted by BPD has resources and treatment to achieve a meaningful recovery.
Proceeds from the ticket sales, sponsorships and auction associated with this virtual conference will fund Emotions Matter and its programs.
