Tasmania Prison Service MATES Program
The TPS peer support program, known as the MATES, is in its 10th year, and we have trained around 50 officers and non-custodial staff in advanced coaching approaches for supporting others experiencing stress and trauma.
Frontline Mind has also trained a customised Leading and Managing People Program where leaders are learning how to adapt their leadership styles from command and control to adapt and collaborate. The focus is on tactical agility, teamwork, and communication.
