Dr. Nancy Hall Public Policy Leadership Award—2014 Winner

Moms Like Us

Moms Like Us has been selected as this year’s winner of the Dr. Nancy Hall Leadership Award in Public Policy. This group was founded recently, but has galvanized impressive support and engagement with policy-makers in Victoria and beyond, around their vision to develop an internationally accredited clubhouse for adults with mental illness. With grassroots organizing, passionate presentations, and through connections with organizations who advocate for people living with mental illness, Moms Like Us has generated important dialogue and planning in Victoria about the continuum of adult psychosocial rehabilitation services. In keeping with the late Dr. Nancy Hall’s own words, they have “pumped up the volume” in their formidable advocacy to make Victoria a place where “more people living with mental illness can experience respect, hope, and an opportunity for fulfillment.”
