The Australian Mental Health Commission has launched a new initiative in response to the COVID-19 situation, as Australians are impacted by this challenging and unprecedented time. The #InThisTogether initiative is a national conversation that will help you access and share practical tips on how to support the mental health and wellbeing of yourself, family and co-workers. To join in this national conversation you can follow the hashtag #InThisTogether across social media, along with video segments providing advice and tips.

The Mental Health Commission website offers a range of further support materials and information, as well as social media tiles to help you and your department take part in the conversation.
