BPD Fest 2022: From Stigma to Strength:
Advocating for Borderline Personality Disorder Recovery
Emotions Matter is pleased to announce it will be hosting its second annual Virtual Conference for Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) on Saturday, May 14, 2022. To view the agenda or speakers, please click on the menu bar above.
People with lived experience of BPD will participate in panel discussions alongside professionals to spread awareness about BPD, and inspire recovery. This groundbreaking event will include:
* Prominent speakers and attendees from across the nation
* Experiential opportunities to learn about BPD through art, writing and music
* 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 donations associated with this virtual conference will help fund Emotions Matter BPD peer support group programs.
