************************************************

We are a group of individuals committed to improving the lives of Adult Institutional Survivors by coming together to find common ground in how we can deliver a seamless service of health and social care of the highest quality to people living with the effects of institutional abuse.

We endeavour to do this in a non-judgemental and non-discriminatory way.

This will be achieved through developing working relationships with the Scottish Executive officials and others in the sub-group. We are seeking to develop a service in line with National stated polices, objectives and strategies and in the process promote the issues of Adult Institutional Abuse Survivors.

We acknowledge the right of the individual to make informed choices and endeavour to do this by representing all victim/survivors within the sub-group regardless.
