The Australian Government’s Mental Health Commission is launching Connections 2022: the Making Connections for Your Mental Health and Wellbeing program with visits to 34 cities and towns across the nation.
The Commission is asking all Australians who have had experience with the mental health and suicide prevention systems to take part by attending a community discussion or completing the National Connections 2022 survey.
This program will help to develop a National Outcomes Framework to provide insights that enable governments to make decisions with confidence and also improve transparency and accountability across the mental health and suicide prevention systems.
To share your story or encourage your patients to share their stories, visit the one-stop digital hub: www.making-connections.com.au.
This hub will give you more information about:
- Connections 2022
- How to register to attend a local community event
- How to undertake the survey
- How to share experience by video, tezt, image or audio file.
You can also support on social media with hashtags #Connections2022 and #MakingConnections.
