Our Teams

Management Committee

Our volunteer management committee ensures that ME/CFS SA is managed according to our Constitution, best practice and the law. This includes upholding our mission, vision and priority goals when planning and making decisions.

The needs of those with ME/CFS are complex and considerable. We work towards improving the quality of life for the ME/CFS community by providing advocacy, support services and undertaking projects.

• Memberships and finance  Maintaining records for memberships and finances requires constant attention to accuracy, privacy and completeness. These roles underpin all the work of our organisation.
• Research We contribute to medical research through consultation, co-design and recruiting participants.
• Projects Teams arise and disperse as specific projects are undertaken. Some of these involve collaboration with not-for-profit or commercial organisations with no prior connection to the ME/CFS community.

Awareness and Advocacy Team

Our awareness team runs events, creates public displays and seeks opportunities to work through conventional and social media, including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. We engage with the public, health practitioners, politicians, educators and other people of influence.

Advocacy activities include writing submissions, engaging with policy makers, and representation on government and not-for-profit working groups.
We collaborate at local, state, national and international level to bring about much-needed change.
