**About the program**
The Carer Gateway In-person Peer Support (IPPS) program provides Carers with an opportunity to **share experiences** and learn from each other in a **peer group setting**. The program draws on three approaches: peer support principals, the CHIME framework for personal recovery (Connectedness, Hope, Identity, Meaning and Empowerment) and elements of reflective practice. These three frameworks have been used to develop a service approach that provides a structured session plan with flexibility for group participants to determine important and relevant topics, engage in mutual conversations and move towards individual **goal planning**, with the development of** communication** skills and building sustainable relationships.

**About the role**
Peer Facilitators will intentionally draw on their **own lived experience** to support the learning of others. This includes effectively communicating the challenges and experiences that contributed to their caring journey. Peer Facilitators will have the ability to demonstrate an awareness of their own experiences, to articulate and share personal strategies for self-care, safety and wellbeing, including a personal insight into the impact of stigma and the subsequent effect this has for individuals, families and the broader community.
