While bullying is the central focus of Dolly’s Dream, the issue of young people’s mental health is pivotal to coping with bullying and the other issues we are concerned about including anxiety, depression, and youth suicide.
We know that there is a lack of availability to mental health services in regional, rural and remote areas of Australia. Due to this, we are working with businesses, schools and sports clubs in these communities to deliver Mental Health First Aid training to help build their capacity in coping with mental health issues.
Your organisation must be in a remote, rural or regional area area to be eligible for this funded program.
