This April, we ask our 2021 State Election Candidates: what is your commitment to mental health families and friends in Tasmania?
To support policy makers and electoral candidates this 2021 State Election, mental health families and friends TASMANIA (MHFFTas) have prepared a series of short briefing papers. Each paper is informed by the lived experience of mental health family members and friends in Tasmania. We value our community’s voice and thank them for their time in sharing their stories and experience.
