In this webinar, participants will be introduced to highlights in the commonalities and diversity of living experience-based practices of mental health advocates/activists in Manitoba, Canada based on an oral history project. Eric Fraser and Roland Vandal will discuss their own living experience-based practices including peer support work within conventional mental health systems as well as advocacy, mentoring, and support in the areas of youth and addictions outside of conventional mental health systems. The intention is to invite discussion of issues involved with living experience-based practices.
