Expressions of Interest (EOIs) are now open for membership in the ACPA National Consumer Advisory Group
Advance Care Planning Australia (ACPA) is calling for passionate individuals and organisations to help shape the future of advance care planning in Australia.
Expressions of Interest (EOIs) are now open for membership in the ACPA National Consumer Advisory Group, a diverse network of consumer representatives and stakeholder organisations committed to ensuring that every voice counts in the way advance care planning (ACP) is understood and delivered.
At ACPA, we believe that meaningful consumer involvement is essential to creating resources and engagement activities that reflect the real needs and experiences of Australians. The Advisory Group plays a vital role in guiding ACPA’s work to strengthen awareness, understanding, and uptake of ACP across the country.
Who we’re looking for
We welcome EOIs from both:
- Consumer representatives registered or affiliated with stakeholder organisations
- Representatives of stakeholder organisations interested in advancing ACP within their communities
We are particularly keen to hear from people who reflect the diversity of Australian communities, including (but not limited to):
- Older or younger people
- People from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds
- People with disability
- Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex (LGBTQI+) people
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people
- People living with chronic or terminal conditions
- Carers of people receiving health services
- People living in rural, regional, or remote areas
What’s involved
As a member of the National Consumer Advisory Group, you will:
- Share your perspectives and insights to help inform ACPA’s work
- Provide feedback on resources, marketing campaigns, and communication strategies
- Attend bi-monthly online meetings via Microsoft Teams
Meeting dates:
