Welcome!

To the temporary website of the Dissociative Initiative. We are currently working on a new website with more detailed information and resources, in the meantime please feel welcome to investigate and download information from this one, and contact us directly sarah@di.org.au if you have any questions or concerns.

We've been very busy managing our voluntary resources over the past few months. The two face to face support groups Echoes and Bridges are going very well and providing ongoing support for people in Melbourne and Adelaide. Our online Facebook Open Group has reached over 120 members and is a good place for those isolated by distance to link in with a wider community and explore other people's websites and blogs.

We have created a constitution and set up our first board; we are now officially incorporated as a Not-for-profit, non-government organisation. Our resources are currently developed and maintained by a network of passionate volunteer Peer Workers and supporters.

We are working on new projects for 2013 and are very keen to hear your thoughts and suggestions about what would be most useful. Our current focus is upon maintaining our existing resources, continuing to find opportunities to give educational talks with mental health staff, creating a professional referral list, and running workshops for friends and family of people who have major dissociation or multiplicity.
