Families and Communities Impacted by Schizophrenia

Do you have a story to tell? Consider joining our Speakers Bureau!

Our Speakers Bureau features speakers who want to share their personal experience with mental illness. Sharing stories of how mental illness has impacted them directly or how it affected them through a family member or loved one, their stories serve to educate others about schizophrenia and open the conversation to a better understanding of what it means to live with it.

Raising awareness and sharing stories about mental illness helps us with our goal of making a positive difference in the lives of individuals, families and communities impacted by schizophrenia and psychosis.

If your organization needs a presenter to speak about their experience of living with a mental illness, or about being a family member/caregiver of an individual living with mental illness, please download and complete the Request a Speaker – Submission Form and send to communications@schizophrenia.on.ca
