Call for National Carer Strategy advisory committee
A new National Carer Strategy, led by the Department of Social Services, aims to provide a framework for coordination of carer policy across Commonwealth portfolios including aged care, disability, veterans' affairs and mental health.
Nominations are open for carers to join the National Carer Strategy Advisory Committee through an open expression-of-interest (EOI) process. Drawing on their personal and professional experiences, members of the Committee will provide advice to Government and contribute to the development of the National Carer Strategy. This will involve contributing to the scope and approach of engagement, as well as the content and themes of the Strategy. EOIs must be submitted by 29 January 2024.
