President Higginson to Ministers Conroy, Darcy, Dix and Fleming:
“Promoting positive mental health strategies in schools is an important initial step in providing support for those students who suffer, often in silence. Being proactive, and developing strategies that promote the importance of acknowledging mental health issues, and removing the stigmas surrounding them, are integral to ensuring future generations of students are equipped with the skills they need in order to become successful members of our society.”
