Department of Health and Aged Care – National mental health consumer and carer peaks – Co-design
On 30 January 2023, the Government announced $7.5 million in funding to establish and operate two new independent mental health lived experience peak bodies:
- one representing consumers; and
- one representing families, carers and kin.
These peak bodies will work to ensure people with lived and/or living experiences of mental ill-health can help shape the policies and programs impacting them. The Department of Health and Aged Care invites people with personal lived and/or living experiences of mental ill-health to share their thoughts on what these peak bodies could look like.
