Theme:                  Evolving Communities Beyond Services

Transcending barriers, cultures and differences in our approach to community mental health and addictions services.

 It is with great pleasure that The Building Bridges Trust announces its fifth conference, Evolving Communities Beyond Services. The conference will take place in Wellington from 14-16 April 2010.

Since 1997 Building Bridges has set the standard for Australasian community mental health conferences with its always challenging and innovative content. This is the fifth Building Bridges conference and it promises to once again bring together the latest thinking on community mental health and addiction services. It's an opportunity to share new research, workshop and collaborate on solutions and meet with the many and varied providers and consumers of services.

The growth of the Building Bridges conferences has been nurtured over the last 12 years by a permanent Trust Board of New Zealand consumers and clinicians, health promoters and allied professionals who believe strongly in its kaupapa of collaboration between all to inspire change for the better in the mental health sector.
