WHAT YOU DO MAKES A DIFFERENCE
.....since participating in the service it has cleared up a lot of confusion about what has happened to us as a family living with mental illness.

IMPACT's Mental Health Carers Support Service uses a recovery approach by supporting people who care about someone experiencing mental illness by identifying strengths and support strategies to promote wellness.
