in response to: Re: Q&A: Ask your questions about SANE's growing Service Model

Hi @Millieme It is not a matter of being 'scared of labels', quite the opposite in fact - it is 'why do we need to attribute labels'. A fully inclusive organisation would not be 'seeing' labels. It is enough that we have to navigate these in the real world - and having just a few of them named up here is alienating to those that aren't. I really like @Teej 's description - "SANE supports the full diversity of mental health experiences" - this is inclusive for everyone whether it be as a lived experience perspective or those living with others who have mental health issues.
