Expression of Interest (EOI)
The Victorian Department of Health recognises that the long-term strategic direction for Victoria’s AOD system must embed the expertise, views and preferences of people with lived and living experience of substance use or dependence and their allies & family members. To this end, the AOD Lived and Living Experience Advisory Group (LLEAG) has been established to support meaningful participation and partnership with people with lived and living experience of substance use or dependence, family members and supporters across a range of initiatives.
The LLEAG has been meeting since September 2020 and currently meets bi-monthly within usual business hours. The Victorian Government is committed to ensuring that government boards and committees reflect the rich diversity of the Victorian community. We encourage applications from people of all ages, Aboriginal people, people with disability, people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds and from lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, gender diverse, intersex and queer people.
Expressions of interest are now open for additional members that reflect the diverse lived and living experience voices of the community. Active engagement of Victoria’s diverse communities is important to better understand and respond to the unique and specific needs of different groups and drive inclusive and equitable outcomes. Interested persons are asked to complete the EOI questions and return this form to: Edward Stott, LLEAG Secretariat, AOD Policy at edward.stott@health.vic.gov.au
