Yarn Up

Yarn up is a safe space for First Nations young people to connect with community, hear from others, and access wellbeing resources and support. It has been co-designed with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff and young First Nations people, and includes:

– videos about social and emotional wellbeing and community connection
– strategies for self-care when people are feeling not good
– cartoons for younger kids.

Many of these resources are also included individually within the Manual of Resources.

Fifth National Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Plan

The Fifth Plan commits to a nationally agreed set of priority areas and actions, that are designed to
achieve an integrated mental health system and that will be used to build a stronger, more transparent,
accountable, efficient and effective mental health system. These actions represent what governments
and the sector believe are achievable and measurable improvements to the current functioning of the
mental health system.
