MHACA has been busy celebrating 2018 Mental Health Week. A highlight this year was recognition of the wonderful contribution Kath Broadbent has made to the mental health sector over many years. She was awarded Mental Health Worker of the Year by the Hon. Vicki OHalloran, Administrator of the Northern Territory at Government House on the 10th October 2018.
This week is Transgender Awareness Week (13–19 November) — an opportunity to celebrate the trans and gender diverse community and raise awareness of the challenges many people continue to face.
MHACA acknowledges that many trans and gender diverse people experience higher rates of trauma, rejection, and harm.
In addition to providing visibility, connection, and celebration, #TransgenderAwarenessWeek is also a time for allies to learn more and take action against prejudice, discrimination, and violence.
