Pandemic. Natural disasters. Rising rents and cost of living. ‘Mental health’ isn’t just a buzzword these days, it’s a critical component of our wellbeing – and adults are not the only ones affected. These challenges can also trickle down to our children, significantly impacting their resilience and happiness.
So, how do we confront this growing problem? To us, support and education is key.
Campbelltown Catholic Club is proud to be funding the Be Unstoppable Foundation to host a free ‘Positive Mental Health for Families Group Workshop’. The 10-week program, facilitated by professional coaches and certified counsellors, will run from May-July 2024 in one of our function rooms, with morning tea and lunch provided.
The Be Unstoppable ‘Positive Mental Health’ Program, is designed to educate and develop awareness regarding mental health, with the preventative measures to take if ‘adverse mental health’ symptoms appear and most importantly, the development of mental strength and ‘positive mental health’, to live a mentally healthy life.
“The Club knows that strong families build strong communities,” said Graeme Derrig, Campbelltown Catholic Club’s Chief Marketing Officer. “By prioritising mental health within the family unit, we create a ripple effect of positivity that resonates far beyond the confines of our homes.”
The Australian Department of Health says almost half of all Australians will suffer from mental health in some degree during their life. This program helps families ‘take back control’ by raising their level of self-awareness as to why they think, feel and behave the way they do and how to effectively meet their ‘human needs’. The path to positive mental health is paved with education, resilience, and a commitment to self-improvement. Let us embrace this journey together.
