Reply to "Strenthening YOUR Voice-links to NEW CAMH guide for lived experience speakers"

Hi Everyone,

I am currently working on developing a policies and procedure manual for a youth speaking group. The group has been together for an 8 month pilot and have been speaking about their experience with substance abuse. I am trying to reach out to any resources that may be of help when developing this manual.

Some issues that we are trying to address:

1. What to do if a youth member re engages with substances, and have developed an identity around being drug free and a speaker

2. How to graduate youth through the program.

3. A curriculum to follow that teaches youth how to develop their story and provides them with public speaking skills

Would anyone have any resources that could help us with this task? Alicia, it sounds like you have quite a bit of experience in this realm, I would love to speak to you!
