MHLET’s
Consumer Representative Service (CRS)
CRS was established with Tasmanian government support to formalise the participation of mental health consumers in the Tasmanian Government’s mental health system, especially in decision-making, such as working groups and committees.
This ensures that the voice of lived experience is heard and understood at all levels of the Tasmanian Mental Health Service.
The CRS also provides mental health consumer representation for the Australian Government (through Primary Health Tasmania) and for community-run and private mental health service providers, on a fee-for-service basis.
