The Fellowship is a community of ongoing learning. Many of our discussions build on concepts and shared language introduced in the Mental Health Advocacy Foundation Training, such as trauma-informed practice, recovery-oriented approaches, and person-centred support.We encourage participants to first develop a foundational understanding through the online training, so that future conversations, learning opportunities, and exchanges can be more meaningful and enriching.At the same time, selected activities are also open to the public, providing opportunities for more people to explore and engage with mental health advocacy as a starting point for learning and reflection.
