Our people
MIND the GaP has a two-tiered governance structure: the MIND the GaP Committee and the MIND the GaP Advisory Group.
The Committee has representatives from the different UOW faculties and schools, as well as external organisations. It is responsible for the operational decisions.
The Advisory Group is an informative body that comprises representatives from local organisations, industries, and community members who have an interest in improving the mental wellbeing services of the Shoalhaven.
MIND the GaP is committed to seeking input from the Shoalhaven public to help shape the design of services in relation to suicide prevention, trauma stress response, and building community resilience. Your awareness of local needs across these areas is important, and your input will be valuable in how the services at MIND the GaP are developed and delivered.
If you would like to be involved in the Advisory Group, provide feedback, or be kept informed about what is happening at MIND the GaP please contact us.
