📣 Our next free training session is The Caring Journey on Thursday, September 28th!

All carers go through a ‘caring journey’ and everyone’s journey is different. Entering into a caring role is not always a conscious choice and can be challenging and confronting at times. Educating oneself helps us to have awareness of why we think and feel the way we do and allows us to become more mindful of the way we interact with others, empowering us in our caring capacity. Through learning, we can eliminate the unknowns and feel more in control.

The Caring Journey training session will provide you with valuable information, resources, and support to help you navigate the path of caregiving.

👉 Registration essential! Register through TryBooking here: https://buff.ly/3ZqqpKC or click the link in our bio! This training is with thanks to finding by the DSS.

MHCN’s Mental Health Carer Advocacy Network is a community engagement program that we designed with carers, families and friends of people with mental illness.

Lived experience is at the core of our work. We know that to drive systemic change, people need to care carer voices and learn about their experiences.

Since 2021, we have linked over 150 carers to organisations for lived experience representation and consultations, 200 carers have completed our training, ran numerous webinars, paid feedback opportunities, and we have developed numerous new resources for carers.

We believe that an informed and engaged network of carers is vital for the community and for mental health services.

The Mental Health Carer Advocacy Network is MHCN’s core membership platform. It is free to join and open to everyone, but with a focus on the needs and experiences of:
📣 Mental Health Carers, Families, and Friends – people who provide care, love, and support, or have connections with people who experience mental health issues, illness, or emotional distress.

📣 Peer Workers (Carer and Consumer) – people who provide paid or voluntary social, emotional, and practical support to clients in need.

📣 Interested Community Members – people who are interested in learning about mental health, caring, and mental health services.

📣 Government and Non-Government Organisations – services and professionals interested in engaging with people with lived experience, collaborating with MHCN, and advertising their work.
