Headspace

Headspace er en hjemmeside, som er finansieret af den australske regering, der henvender sig til unge australier i alderen 12-25. På hjemmesiden kan man få rådgivning og finde information om generel og mental helbred, uddannelse og alkohol. Her er et uddrag fra hjemmesiden:

The current mental health system is not resourced to deal with young people who have mild to moderate mental health issues. This often means that young people do not obtain timely treatment or they have difficulty finding a service that can respond to their needs.
Delays in obtaining a service are also caused because young people do not necessarily know the best place to seek assistance. Young people are most likely to talk to friends or family members as the first step in their help seeking journey. These key people are often also unsure how to find best possible support options for their friends or children.
As Australia's National Youth Mental Health Foundation, headspace is tackling the issues which stand in the way of young people's access to accessible and appropriate health services.
