Join us for our 6th annual BPD Awareness Day event on Thursday May 9th from 1:30-6:00 pm (PDT). Our keynote speakers this year will be Dr. Katie Dixon Gordon, Jay Cavanagh, Amanda Oliveira, and Dylan Zambrano. Come learn about borderline personality disorder, validation, ways of coping, stomping out stigma, and increasing hope! Hear inspiring stories from people living with BPD and family members, and current information and skills from professionals working in the field. Your donations will go directly to supporting our current funding initiative of piloting a DBT multi-skills group for adolescents and families.
