MIGRANT and refugee communities will have better access to culturally appropriate mental health support thanks to a new partnership between Beyond Blue and settlement agency AMES Australia.
The two organisations have joined together to make it easier and more efficient for people to find the support that best suits them, when they need it.
The partnership will improve access to mental health resources and information on supports and services for many marginalised communities, including refugees and migrants, and those who face additional barriers to accessing help.
With one third of people in Australia born overseas, an increase in people finding refuge and safety in Australia, the continued impact of racism and discrimination, and current global conflicts, the need for more inclusive approaches to mental health is greater than ever.
