The AYF wants to know what you have to say about the issue of mental health in Australia today. What impact do you think mental health issues have on your community?

On 11 May 2011, the Australian Government announced that additional funding of $1.5 billion over five years would be provided for further National Mental Health Reform initiatives. This funding is to ensure Australians with a mental illness get the care they need, when they need it, and makes a significant contribution to properly supporting young people who struggle with mental illness.
