LLEW Development Facilitator (full time)

Specifically providing training for those working in clinical services

Do you have your own lived/living experience of a mental health issue? Have you worked in a designated LLE role as a peer support worker in a clinical mental health setting? Do you believe you have what it takes to help new LLE workers thrive and stay true to the values of our workforce in those environments?

If you answered yes, we want you.

If your experience includes co-occurring issues (mental health and AOD, or mental health and harm reduction), we still would like to hear from you. If you have a colourful past, including a criminal justice background, we’re also keen to chat with you.

We strongly encourage applications from First Nations peoples, people from LGBTQIA+ communities, people from rural and remote regions of Victoria, and others from diverse backgrounds.
