The Victorian Mental Health and Wellbeing Workforce Capability Framework sets out the skills, knowledge and ways of working that the workforce will require in the new integrated and responsive mental health and wellbeing system. It will be revised to keep pace with emerging and evolving needs.

Victoria’s Mental Health and Wellbeing Workforce Strategy 2021-2024 prioritises steps to stabilise the system and lay the foundations for the decade of reform ahead. It will be reviewed and updated every two years.

The Guidelines are intended to inform employers and funding bodies and to support change across the mental health sector by improving understanding of the benefits of the Lived Experience workforce and by supporting employers to assess their local readiness and prioritise activities.

This framework describes important features of the carer perspective supervision relationship and provides useful tools and resources for carer supervisors and supervisees.
