Join us on this episode as we sit down with Assistant Minister for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention, and Assistant Minister for Rural and Regional Health, Emma McBride. She’s here in Dubbo to officially launch a new culturally safe headspace outreach service for First Nations young people right across Western NSW.
Discover how this innovative program, co-designed with Aboriginal communities, delivers on-country mental health and wellbeing support in towns including Nyngan, Warren, Condobolin, Coonamble, Gulargambone, Bourke, Brewarrina, Lightning Ridge, Walgett and Collarenebri. We talk about the barriers facing young people in remote areas, what makes this support unique, and how the Albanese Labor Government’s investment is expanding vital services like headspace.
If you or someone you know needs support, visit headspace Dubbo, check out headspace.org.au, or call 1800 650 890 for help anytime.
Tune in for an insightful discussion on supporting youth mental health and strengthening local communities across our region.
