Deeper Integration of Lived Experience Voices in the Society

The Lived Experience Council was formed to provide a structure within the Society which can provide support for broad integration of lived experience perspectives in all aspects of the ISBD. The council will comment on and bring attention to lived experience priorities through review of key initiatives and will work to ensure representation of lived experience members. In conjunction with the Experts by Experience track in our conference, this represents our ongoing commitment to bring the wisdom, energy and concerns of those living with bipolar disorder to bear on the Society’s work.
