APSU maintains the statewide register for consumers and family members interested in engaging in the full range of consumer and family opportunities – from sharing their personal stories in forums and workshops and corporate events, giving feedback in focus groups, through to being members of high-level Boards and advisory groups.

APSU processes:

  • We work with you to write a useful expression of interest request for your organisation or project.
  • We send your request to our extensive membership.
  • We short-list applicants and work with you to contact those who meet your requirements.
  • We train your preferred applicants in consumer-participation basics or sharing their stories safely and with effect.
  • We brief them before the activities and contact them after the session to offer support.
  • We organise the payment process for participants
