Voices of Recovery Part 3

Chump Change Productions
In partnership with NAMI Maine and Amistad Inc.
Funded by a grant from SAMHSA and the National Campaign for Mental Health Recovery

These are the goals of the project/film:

· Recovery is possible. What are some of the things that family members and consumers believe contribute to recovery, not only what helps individuals, but what helps families who are coping with this in their families, living with this and trying to support family members and themselves through the journey.

· Shame and Discrimination are alive and well, and a significant source of shame and discrimination comes from the very providers that we expect to help and support folks. How does discrimination show up no consumer voice, paying for only traditional services, funding expensive crisis oriented services, etc.

· What has been helpful to reinforce recovery, and what our experts wished the system and providers and society would do more of to help others with their recovery.
