The objective of SHARC Lived Experience Workforce Supervision is to sustain, develop and anchor the lived experience workforce through a relational, reflective and values-driven supervision process.
At SHARC, we recognise that lived experience work is unique. Workers intentionally draw upon their personal experiences of adversity, healing, and service engagement as part of their professional practice. As such, supervision must be delivered through a lived experience lens and by people who understand the opportunities, vulnerabilities, responsibilities and tensions of lived experience work.
Our supervisors are Victorian leaders in lived experience workforce development and support and have walked the walk of a lived experience worker. They deliver specialist supports through their lived expertise, professional training in supervision practice and continuing connection to the lived experience community.
At the center of our supervision practice is the belief that relationships create the conditions for growth, learning and change. Our supervision is not only about discipline specific support but a mechanism to sustain wellbeing, strengthen practice, uphold lived experience values and contribute to individual, organisational and system transformation.
