IPTN have launched a programme of initiatives to increase awareness of Poetry Therapy in Ireland. These include a number of short and long term projects including:
1. Publication of a PT Ezine, edited by Theresa Kelly, in spring and autumn
2. Publication of an information leaflet to be distributed widely in libraries and other appropriate centres.
3. Initiate dialogues with professional bodies and colleges associated with the creative arts with a view to raising IPTN profile and recognition of Poetry Therapy as a viable and beneficial creative therapy.
4. Contact like-minded associations with a view to possible affiliation
5. Organise 6 Poetry Therapy workshops a year in various parts of the country. Each one facilitated by qualified poetry therapy practitioners.
6. Continue to organise IPTN annual conference but in different venues each year to facilitate easier access to people around the country
