On this World Mental Health Day 2024, we unite as an allied health team—comprising of psychologists, social workers, counsellors, rehab counsellors, mental health workers, and exercise physiologists- Healthfind Australia. We are dedicated to empowering vulnerable individuals on their journey to employment and well-being across multiple programs within AKG. Our collage of selfies embodies the essence of our mission and heart of our work, highlighting the critical assistance we offer to those navigating complex challenges, including mental health issues. We operate from offices, homes, remote locations, on country and across various regions throughout Australia. These images showcase our remarkable team members in their “office for today” settings. Thank you all for the extraordinary work you do every day to support some of the most vulnerable individuals in our communities. Your unwavering dedication and effort are invaluable, making a profound difference in the lives of those facing mental health challenges. Mental health is a universal concern, and it is vital to normalise the act of seeking help, treating it with the same importance as any other medical condition. Today, we endeavour to dismantle the stigma surrounding mental health, cultivating an atmosphere of kindness, compassion and understanding. Let us raise our voices in unison to emphasise that it is not only acceptable but essential to reach out for assistance, ensuring that support is accessible to all, irrespective of their backgrounds. Together, we can foster a society where mental health care is prioritised, and no one feels isolated in their struggles. Let’s make some noise together to remind everyone that it’s okay to ask for help and support when it comes to their mental health! Happy World Mental Health Day 2024 from all of us at Healthfind!! 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 🎉 #WMHD24 #mentalhealthmatters AKG Jobfind Australia uLaunch RISE Ventures
