Mental Health Week 2017

Mental Health Week runs from Sunday 8 to Saturday 14 October 2017.

After a great week of events for Mental Health Week 2016, this year community members in the Mount Alexander Shire will once again be invited to participate in a number of specially coordinated activities and events thanks to a partnership of local services and organisations.

Using the slogan “Mental Health beings with Me”, activities are designed to:

• Encourage community members to focus on their own mental wellness;
• Highlight the broad range of activities that are already available across the Shire that encourage positive mental health and wellbeing;
• Reduced stigma associated with mental illness; and
• Raise awareness of pathways to support that are currently available in our community.
