2003-2007 Presentations

The Family Outreach and Response Program is often asked to speak to different groups on mental health recovery and the important role that families play in recovery. On this page you will find Adobe pdf versions of the slides used in some of the presentations that the FOR Program has given in the past. If you would like to have someone from the Family Outreach and Response Program come and talk to your group about the Family Outreach and Response Program and its work or mental health recovery please contact us!
