The theme for the 2023 BPD Awareness Week campaign is
'Be the Difference - Principles of Care'
People living with borderline personality disorder (BPD) often experience stigma and discrimination which remains a significant barrier to accessing appropriate care.
The core principles of care are drawn from the common factors of ‘what works’ in effective therapies. They can be easily incorporated in the practice of health professionals, expanding access to treatment and ensuring every interaction can be therapeutic.
Be the difference, make a difference, by applying the core BPD principles of care in your practice.
