09.01.2022 We are so excited to finally share our amazing new video with everyone! In 2019 we held the first ever Youth Mental Health Summit in the Wollondilly, SUM IT UP. Young people from Picton High School, Wollondilly Anglican College and Camden High School came together to talk about mental health and how we can work together to support young people in our local community. On the day it was identified that young people often don’t realise they need help and are sometimes scare...d to ask for help. So we developed this video to highlight ReFrame, the amazing service we have in the Wollondilly and also to show young people the ways in which they can access help and support locally. Please share with family and friends This video was a partnership project between the Dilly YAC, @Reframe and Community Links Wellbeing and is funded by the WayAhead and South Western Sydney Local Health District. #mentalhealthmonth#dillyyac#tunein https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B05TcHBP1x4&feature=youtu.be
