For more than thirty years, voice hearers outside the U.S. have been supporting one another through a network of Hearing Voices support groups, learning coping skills from one another, processing and healing from trauma, and often reducing or eliminating the burden of drugs they find unhelpful.
In 2012, visionary philanthropists from the UK and US teamed up with renowned research psychologist Dr. Gail Hornstein to train and establish a strong nationwide network of hundreds of Hearing Voices group facilitators and research the outcomes.
These social entrepreneurs have since planted over 60 groups in local communities and several online groups for those without a local group.
