Hello All,
Three months at One Door and it has been a privilege to get to know this wonderful organisation, which began over 30 years ago with the mission to make a difference to the lives of those living with a mental illness. Since my last update, I have spent time with some of One Door’s services in the South Coast of NSW, up to the Hunter, throughout the metro areas of Sydney and, just yesterday, with our services out in Wagga Wagga. What has struck me is the dedication of One Door’s staff who remain focused on delivering person-centred services amongst the immense changes in the mental health system.
One Door Mental Health is currently in the process of developing our new Strategic Plan for the next three years. This Plan will guide the focus and growth for One Door as we continue to deliver evidence-based recovery-orientated services and provide strong advocacy to those living with a mental illness. I look forward to sharing the Strategic Plan with you soon. We are holding our Symposium tomorrow, Saturday 18 May, where we will be exploring ideas with the Thought Leaders of Today – why not come along and hear some fabulous speakers and share your own ideas on making a difference in the mental health system!
Till next time,
Kathi Boorman | CEO
