Granés Foundation will present on February 1, 2024, the third booklet of the Granés Foundation Dialogues Collection, on “Mental Health and Intellectual Disability.” This booklet will compile the summaries of the presentations and the audiovisual content from the 2nd Conference on Mental Health and Intellectual Disability, which was held in May 2023. The conference was promoted by the Health Care Institute, the Catalan Society of Psychiatry and Mental Health, and Granés Foundation, and focused on Good and Bad Practices in the Care of People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities.
The publication will be presented for the first time at the Granés Foundation headquarters in Banyoles, although in the coming months, presentations will also be held in other towns in Catalonia in collaboration with DINCAT.
This will add another volume to the Granés Foundation Dialogues Collection. The first booklet was published in 2020 about the conference held ” Inclusive Sport: Future Challenges ” while the second booklet was published in 2022 about the 1st Conference on Mental Health and Intellectual Disability.
