Further information
The focus of Stress Less, Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) and the International Mentally Healthy project is to provide students with a greater understanding and awareness of mental health issues.
The initiative provides strategies to create a study-life balance that will contribute towards a more inclusive and non-discriminatory university environment.
The Mentally Healthy program currently provides MHFA training to UWA students.
You can also keep up to date with mentally healthy events and information via the UWA Mentally Healthy Facebook page.
