Mental Health Services and Supports Expo...

Posted by Pieta on January 20, 2010 at 5:51 AM

Hi all,

 

Just wanting to gather feedback. I am thinking of attempting to organise an event/ expo day which includes stalls from mental health services and support groups in the Brisbane area (maybe just start small and go Brisbane South) where people can come for free to the one place and learn about all the available services and support groups...

 

Does that sound like something people would be interested to attend? I would try and get the expo info out there in the general public as many people don't know how to access any services or that help and support is available.

 

It would be a big thing to organise (and possibly do it as a WITS event - would need to discuss with the committee)so just seeing if this is something people would find beneficial.

 

Some services would be;

Mental health professionals from public and private clinics/ Support services like PhAMs/ stepping stones/ Nexxt Health/ Anam Cara/ Jerendine/ accommodation services/ transport serviceslike Lands... And support groups like Grow/ Depression Support/ etc

I'm a bit late on this one but yes I would find it beneficial and would be happy to help out if you need a hand.
