Meet the incredible Leadership Great South Coast Group whose goal this year is to improve the capacity of community members to support young people's mental well being and help break-down negative stigmas surrounding mental health.

Having just undertaken the Youth Mental Health First Aid course themselves the group have now taken on the challenge of encouraging at least 100 people in their Great South Coast community to undertake Youth Mental Health First Aid training in 2022.

This training has been made available through a partnership between Western Victoria Primary Health Network, Youth Live4Life and the Great South Coast Suicide Prevention Place Based Trial.
