The Hearing Voices Network - www.hearing-voices.org - this organisation supports voice hearers and campaigns for their rights. In particular they dislike the term 'schizophrenia'. Some members of the organisation suggest that it is useful to understand and engage in dialogue with the voices. Although our model does not support this view, we greatly respect the work this organisation is doing to support voice hearers and to challenge prejudice and conventional perspectives in mental health.

In our view, it does not yet reflect more recent research that points to prenatal trauma as being primary in the hearing voices problem.
