Mental Health Week
Mental Health Week runs from 7 to 13 October. The theme for Mental Health Association Australia’s inaugural Creative Heroes Arts Competition the MHAA 2013 Superhero Grants Program is ‘My Inner Superpower”.
The theme is intended to build awareness around the importance discovering, knowing and appreciating our own inner superpowers. Our inner superpower is something we are good at or passionate about – something that makes us uniquely us.
The week also features the Get Caped Fundraising initiative for the Mental Health Association. Proceeds raised will go toward the Association’s online youth hub ‘unravel360’ an interactive youth initiative which focuses on strategies to improve and maintain mental wellness.
Open Forum is a policy discussion website produced by Global Access Partners – Australia’s Institute for Active Policy. We welcome contributions and invite you to submit a blog to the editor and follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin and Mastadon.
