► Sector Leaders' Days
Regular 'Sector Days' provide opportunities for clinical leaders and service managers in the child and adolescent mental health and addictions sector to share innovative practice and service development ideas and foster networking and leadership support.
They are also an opportunity for the Ministry of Health and other key agencies to disseminate information and elicit feedback. Keynote presentations can be accessed here.

► Youth Engagement & Leadership
This project aims to support people who have lived experience of the mental health system, either in themselves (called youth consumer advisors) or through their family (family/whānau advisors). To do this guidelines and workshops are created as needed. Werry Workforce Whāraurau also supports a network of youth consumer advisors around the country who aim to improve various DHBs, NGOs as well as Werry Workforce itself.
A place with youth and family advisors co-designing projects and providing input will have happier families who experience a better path of recovery and improved outcomes. Find out more about #DMC and youth consumer participation here.
