Improve Mental Health Care In Australia

This petition was published by Rebecca Fidele on Dec 19, 2007

We, the undersigned, therefore request the Australian Government adequately fund the public Mental Health system to:

- Ensure the expansion of hospital and community services to meet the increased community demand.

- Ensure any Australian diagnosed with a mental illness does not continue to suffer disadvantage from the current underfunded mental health services.

- Reduce the impact of mental illness on individuals, families and the community.

- Where possible prevent the development of mental illness by promoting mental health to the Australian community through awareness and education.

- Ensure rural communities have access to adequate mental health care.
