Products & Services
MISSION: Live & Learn, Inc. is a social enterprise that provides research, technical assistance, and community engagement services to behavioral health system stakeholders. Live & Learn was founded because using science to improve mental health systems requires that the experiences of people who have used mental health services are represented by data. PHILOSOPHY: Live & Learn improves health and social welfare systems by collaborating across stakeholder groups?practitioners, patients, advocates, and researchers?to promote public health by identifying common concerns and mutual solutions. We synthesize lived experience with learned expertise: those who have 'lived it' through their own struggles and direct service to communities, and 'learned it' through professional training.
APPROACH: On all projects, we partner with community-based programs, consumer groups, governments, and research institutions to maximize capacity, and invest in opportunities for cross-learning and growth. In collaboration with these partners, we conduct projects that generate and disseminate actionable products and information related to research and policy in the areas of workforce development, program implementation/sustainability, patient advocacy, and service user experiences. As a consumer-run business, Live & Learn has a demonstrated commitment to the inclusion of service users and families, which enhances our ability to deliver maximally informed and useful analysis, tools, and services.
