Alternatives 2021 will be a “working conference” where we will return to our roots of advocacy and social justice. In addition to a wide array of keynotes, workshops, and fun events, conference participants will be able to join work groups to develop action steps in key priority areas. These may include starting and running peer respites as alternatives to hospitalization, as well as developing and implementing warmlines and creating crisis response teams; examining what advocacy and support look like in a Covid-19 world; and many other relevant topics.
We will hear from those already involved in successful peer programs. We’ll also have a voice, and roll up our sleeves, in areas we’re passionate about. We’ll find ways of working together to expand our influence and make a difference in our own communities. We won’t forget to enjoy some entertaining activities, and to connect with one another as well.
