This training is for non-LEWs who want to better understand and work with their LEW colleagues. Lived Experience Workforces (LEWs) are essential in the mental health reform occurring in Victoria. However, often Lived Experience disciplines and scope are misunderstood, and well-established power dynamics and workplace processes can impede LEW ways of working.
This training will increase understanding of Lived Experience Workforces (LEWs) from the mental health sector, and explore how learners can support LEWs at their service.
