Efforts to achieve a mental health workforce that systematically includes people with lived experience of mental illness, and their families and carers, is one step closer today with the launch of the Peer Work Hub. The Hub is a new online resource for employers developed by the Mental Health Commission of NSW. Its purpose is to provide evidence and advice for employers on how and why they should develop a mental health peer workforce within their organisation. The need to grow, build and strengthen NSW’s peer workforce is a priority in Living Well: A Strategic Plan for Mental Health in NSW 2014-2024. http://peerworkhub.com.au
