The report, Support in tough times: Encouraging young people to seek help for their friends, has been developed by the NSW Commission for Children and Young People (CCYP) and the NSW Mental Health Commission. The report shows that schools can improve the lives of students by recognising the important role of friends in seeking adult help for young people with mental health problems. In this endeavour schools also need strong partnerships with parents, carers and mental health services in the community. Download a PDF of the report below (3.2 MB).
