Conference planners include Shaindl Diamond of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) and the Coalition Against Psychiatric Assault and Bonnie Burstow, a senior lecturer at OISE, a specialist in community organizing and marginalized populations and a self-described antipsychiatry activist.

PsychOUT hopes to provide a venue for those with alternative ideas to network and develop strategies that "promote empowerment and equality."
