Mental Health Education in School Curriculum

The issue

In today's society mental illness is such a common problem among youth, particularly between the ages of 12-19 years old. 

We are seeing too many young Australians fall victim to mental health problems, with no real support line within schools, and no education surrounding Mental ill Health within any mainstream curriculum.

It is time for the government to act now and implement mental health education within the high school curriculum.
