A few folks from our community travelled to Liverpool, England this summer to attend the INTAR 2014 conference (International Network Toward Alternatives and Recovery). The theme of this year's conference was "Power to Communities: Healing through Social Justice." Evan Goodchild made an audio recording of Jacqui Dillon's Keynote speech: Recovery as Social Action: The Personal is the Political.  

Jacqui Dillon is the National Chair of the Hearing Voices Network in England. She has also helped develop HVN USA and has been involved in our Facilitator Trainings.

The Hearing Voices Network USA website has been upgraded!  You'll probably notice that the appearance of the site has changed, but that's not all that has happened.  We've also upgraded the site's functionality to fix some of the problems that were impacting use of the website, and to make way for exciting and useful new features.  You should definitely check out our new map-based Find a Group page!  We're hoping that it will make it easier for people to locate HVN groups near them, and to watch as the Hearing Voices Movement grows within the United States!

We've also revamped the functionality for registering your HVN-USA groups on the website.  Hopefully this will make listing your new HVN group here easier and more straightforward.  Anyone can list their group on this website to get the word out and make it visible nation-wide.  All you need to do is create an account on this website and click on "Register HVN-USA Group".  We've provided detailed instructions to make the process easier.

Finally, we're making strides to create a more dynamic and engaging experience for visitors to our website.  Come again soon to see new articles, many new training opportunities, and updated resources and information.  And, stay tuned for even more new website features to come!
