Our purpose:

We amplify the voice, influence and leadership of lived experience to drive change.

Our vision:

A world where people experiencing distress retain their dignity, autonomy and human rights.
No matter what.

Our value-base:

• Courage.
• Intersectionality.
• Compassion.
• Leadership.
• Dignity.
• Social Justice.

We will have been successful when:

• The involvement and expertise of the lived experience community has grown.
• System reforms are provoked and shaped by people with lived experience.
• Our thought leadership and innovation are recognised as industry leading and influence best practice standards.
• ‘Alternative’ ways of understanding and responding to distress are on the manstream agenda, without co-option or dilution.
