First Person Plural is a small UK-wide registered charity led by abuse survivors with first hand experience of complex dissociative distress. They are a membership association open to dissociative survivors, their friends, family & professional allies and anyone with an interest in dissociation who wishes to support their work. Much of their work is achieved through a mutual support model which means that members support each other with self-help tips, information, etc, through the medium of the newsletter and attendance at occasional open members meetings.
First Person Plural's mission is for all who are adversely affected by complex dissociative conditions to have free and easy access to a range of relevant specialist assessment, treatment, care and support services which offer the hope of recovery and an improved quality of life.
First Person Plural works to:
- Provide support and information to adult survivors of trauma and abuse who experience dissociative distress, and to their friends, family and carers (allies).
- To promote a better understanding of dissociative distress among health and social care professionals and to improve service provisions leading to better health outcome.
- To advance the education of the general public in order to promote a better understanding and acceptance of people who experience dissociative distress.
