position statement

Social participation is about engaging with other people. It’s related to personal feelings of connectedness, and societal inclusion.

Human activities have affected the global climate, leading to significant health — including mental health — impacts.

Mental Health Australia in consultation with our members is proud to release the following position statement on housing and mental health, which will form the basis of our advocacy in this area. Mental Health Australia members and stakeholders are also encouraged to use this material for your own advocacy activities.
