For Borderline Personality Disorder Consumers Needing Advocacy

In order to be eligible to participate in the BPD Today Advocacy Program you must be needing very important assistance in your life and are presently unable to get help due to either financial problems and/or psychiatrically functioning poorly with no one to assist you.

If you are in immediate risk for suicide or self harm, call 911 right away to obtain medical and/or psychiatric assistance. 

The BPD Today Advocacy program does not accept consumers who are actively suicidal in the program. Advocates are not trained to deal with this situation and you need to be safe immediately by calling 911. After you have stabilized to the point where you are not actively suicidal you may apply to this program.

You can receive more information about this program here.

A description of the volunteer application position is available here.

You must fill out an application to be reviewed and will be notified if you have been accepted or not. Send this completed application to the Director.

This is a brand new program and there may not be an advocate available in your area at this time. Please be patient as this program grows.
