World Mental Health Day

Event Description

Initiated by the World Federation for Mental Health in 1992 (WFMH), World Mental Health Day is an International day of observance recognized by the World Health Organization on October 10th every year. Last year's international theme was Youth and Mental Health, with this year's theme being Suicide Prevention.

The goal of World Mental Health Day is to raise awareness for mental health issues around the world and mobilize efforts in support of mental health.

In Victoria, we will be holding a 2.5-hour event complete with speakers, local resources, activities, giveaways, performances, and dialogue to spread light, knowledge, and stories.
