Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Forum
We are inviting people who use local mental health or suicide prevention services and their carers to have their say through a series of face-to-face and online consultation workshops in our region (Blue Mountains, Hawkesbury, Lithgow and Penrith) in late November and early December.
The input at these sessions will help shape the way services are planned and designed for the future.
Please note: it is very important that only consumers and carers attend these forums. There will be a separate consultation process for health professionals and service providers.
Face to Face Forums
A face to face forum will be held in each of our local government areas. Registration is essential for catering purposes and to receive a pre-forum information package, and a light meal will be provided. Support persons are welcome to attend. Please register your support person separately.
