Hello!
I'm wondering if anyone has any resources, policies (if you don't mind sharing) or evidence related to paying people with lived experience. I'm primarily interested in information related to determining what is a "living wage" rate for working just a few hours per month to sit on a committee or participate in a time-limited project, not a full-time peer support job.
Thanks in advance for any help!
