This survey is to gather feedback from the public - especially people with the lived experience of mental illness and their families.  Your input on these issues is very important in helping DRW decide on priorities for mental health advocacy.  Please assist us by telling us which of these things you think we should do in the coming year.
(Question 1 through 8)
Below are some of the areas DRW is considering for the upcoming year.
Please read each potential priority area and rank its importance to you. 

Question Title

* 1. Individuals experiencing discrimination in the work place due to mental illness need help understanding and asserting their rights.
