The Mental Health Commission is hosting a Psychosocial Support Service System Workshop and is seeking expressions of interest from individuals with a personal lived experience of mental health issues or lived experience as a family member, carer or significant other, to advise and support the future development of related policies and projects.

Psychosocial supports are non‐clinical and recovery‐oriented services, delivered in the community and tailored to individual needs, which support people experiencing mental illness to live independently and safely in the community.
