Italy has been THE place to meet this autumn!

[02 December 2009]

Thanks to the fundraising and organisational efforts of Pietro Barbieri, ESCIF policy working group 3 on peer-counselling and peer support services held a productive two-day meeting in Rome in October. Pekka Hättinen (ESCIF Executive), Lars Andersson (Sweden) and Janko Erlich-Zdvorak (Croatia) were all able to accept Pietro’s invitation – unfortunately, Dougy Johnstone (Scotland) was recuperating from a long period in hospital and wasn’t able to attend.
