Thru implementation of the @youthl4l model & @MHFA_Australia evidence-based education, rural communities are supported to build resilience & capacity, where improved MH literacy of indiv community members helps create a non-stigmatising & supportive community environment #RRMH22
Lots of fun presenting the evaluation of @ifarmwell_ at #RRMH22 today!
,@ifarmwell_ research shows that an online intervention co-designed by farmers for farmers (informed by psychological science) is an impactful approach for helping farmers deal w things beyond their control, reduce their levels of distress & improve their mental wellbeing #RRMH22

"Informal mental health community groups and events were found to be a vital part of reducing stigma, encouraging discussions of mental wellbeing and building resilience." - Micaela on Social Connection & Community Support for Farmers' Mental Health and Wellbeing #RRMH22
Wonderful to see so many community-led projects at #RRMH22
The purpose of this presentation is to give the audience a real and practical understanding of just how it is that evidence-based suicide prevention can be successfully implemented in high risk, low socio -economic and complex trauma effected rural communities. #RRMH22

A nice example of co-design and prioritising the voices of young people #RRMH22
StigmaBeat project grew out of an intl research collab & a partnership between @MonashUni & @SatelliteFdn, to identify & address the structural drivers of mental illness stigma, as experienced by young rural people, in families where a parent experiences MH challenges #RRMH22
