Our organization is hoping to do a better job of engaging people with lived experience. One of the pieces we're talking about is paying people a living wage honourarium for their time (sitting at a committee table, assisting with event planning/organizing, etc).

Has anyone developed a policy on paying people with lived experience a living wage honourarium, or developed any policies/ guidelines on work related to this? We'd like to get away from using gift cards as incentives and provide people with a cheque for real money.
Thanks in advance,
