Mentally Healthy Communities

Understanding the concepts of mental health and wellbeing in children and young people is key to your engagement with the Be You Professional Learning. We all have mental health, no matter our developmental stage – including for you as an adult.

Your position along a continuum of mental health will be influenced by a range of risk and protective factors, and environmental influences. In particular, mental health and wellbeing is most likely to occur in an inclusive environment, where people have supportive relationships with each other.
