Are you a Lived Experience (Peer) worker?

A peer worker uses their lived experience of mental health/alcohol and other drugs/family domestic or sexual violence/homelessness/incarceration to connect with people in similar lived experience to inspire hope and recovery in others. Peer work can be paid or unpaid.

This workshop will be taking place in the training room at Consumers of Mental Health WA.

The workshop is free - we do ask that you become a member of Consumers of Mental Health WA (this is also free).
