The NSW Mental Health Commission is an independent statutory agency responsible for monitoring, reviewing and improving mental health and wellbeing for people in NSW.
The Commission works with government and the community to secure better mental health and wellbeing for everyone, and availability of appropriate supports in or close to home when people are unwell or at risk of becoming unwell.
In all its work, the Commission is guided by the voice of people with lived experience of mental health issues and caring, their families and kinship groups. The Commission promotes policies and practices that recognise the autonomy of people who experience mental health issues and support their recovery, emphasising their personal and social needs and preferences.

Leading the change: a Toolkit to evaluate lived experience inclusion and leadership
Leading the change: a Toolkit to evaluate lived experience inclusion and leadership provides practical tools and resources for self-reflection and action planning in mental health and social services organisations.
It was developed in partnership between the Commission, BEING - Mental Health Consumers and Mental Health Carers NSW, to address Action 9 of Living Well in Focus 2020-2024 and build on the strategic direction and vision of the Lived Experience Framework for NSW (2018).
Leading the change enables organisations to assess their level of maturity for lived experience inclusion, monitor and measure inclusion and impact, and identify areas for growth. Organisations can tailor how they use the toolkit, recognising the wide variety in the sector.
