Dear Mental Health Literacy Initiative Co-Design Participants,

South Western Sydney PHN would like to thank you for contributing your valuable time, experience and expertise to the co-design of the Mental Health Literacy Initiative. Your feedback has been collated and provided to us by Beacon Strategies who were commissioned to conduct the co-design approach.

The recommendations and activities that SWSPHN commit to progressing over the next 12 months include:

  • Targeted training and capacity building for General Practice and other service providers.
  • Mental health literacy workshops for community members, particularly culturally and linguistically diverse communities.
  • Development of an internal mental health literacy communications strategy.
  • Scoping of a lived experience community champions approach.
  • Continued implementation of the Embrace Multicultural Mental Health Framework and associated activities.
  • Creation of a No Wrong Door Framework to complement the existing No Wrong Door Initiative.
  • Revamp of the Recovery Point app/website, including directory of mental health supports in south western Sydney matched to users needs and location.
  • Ongoing commitment to mental health literacy activities through SWSPHN Needs Assessment and Activity Work Plan submitted to the Department of Health.

Thank you again for your support. If you have any questions or wish to be involved in any future SWSPHN activities, including those within the Mental Health Literacy Initiative, please do not hesitate to contact Pritika Desai, Mental Health Coordinator at pritika.desai@swsphn.com.au.
