Advocacy and Self-advocacy for Carers in Mental Health

one day workshop

 

Advocacy and Self-advocacy for Carers in Mental Health is designed for people who are personally involved in caring for someone living with a mental illness. This one day workshop aims to empower the participants with knowledge and skills to advocate for themselves and others, and to also recognise when to step back and encourage the person living with mental illness to advocate for themself.

By the end of this workshop participants will develop a greater understanding of:

• advocacy and self-advocacy
• supporting choice within another person's recovery journey
• addressing potential challenges and barriers faced by carers
• skills involved with advocacy and self-advocacy.

Every participant receives a workbook and information kit.
