ENUSP gives users and survivors of psychiatric services across Europe a way to communicate so that we can support one other in the personal, political, and social struggle against injustice and discrimination.
We are the only grassroots umbrella organization working across Europe to unite local and national organizations of (ex-) users and survivors of psychiatry.
We directly represent the views of people who are or have been on the receiving end of psychiatric services.
