Session Overview
We want to inspire more people with lived experience of substance use and mental health to become employed, so that they can contribute from their unique perspective to support and help those who struggle with addiction and mental health, by showing what experiential expertise they possess and what it can contribute. Our training workshops begin with a 3-minute personal story and then a 7-minute film, followed by group interaction. The films offer four different themes: (1) Not giving up, (2) The importance of proper housing, (3) The challenge of helping those who don't want help, and (4) Feeling at home in the community.
