What do the above statistics mean in the perspective of other multicultural communities` mental health, including migrants, refugees and asylum seekers who have had existing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), long history of suffering and struggle in their lives from countries of origin to Australia? Most people are unaware or never speak or believe that mental illness is real and treatable. Yet, half of the people diagnosed get treatment at any time—only half of those adhere to treatments. We are committed to addressing gaps by engaging the parents, families and individuals with GPs or health professionals.

Research evidence shows that overall cumulative stress combined with existing inequities and inequalities cause severe mental illness that can significantly shift many family structures and lives.

In addition, current epodes of mental illness in our communities have shed light on indicative evidence of the high prevalence of poor health, chronic diseases, substance abuse, drug addictions, crimes, incarcerations, suicides, homicides, and domestic and family violence.

At CMRH, we seek an agency to provide culturally safe, appropriate, and specific mental healthcare services to break the chain of mental illness disasters and improve quality health outcomes. We are aware that many parents, families, young people, and individuals still don’t have knowledge of mental illness signs, symptoms and delayed treatment, support, and recovery cause needless suffering. Thus, our objectives are to provide community education, campaigns raising awareness, and psychosocial programs to build the capacity and knowledge of our communities about the seriousness of the mental illness.

We deliver our work through national and local media, including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TV, Radios, online and print on international, federal and regional platforms, including community events.

We demonstrate our works with the help of many volunteers, community champions and ambassadors focusing on human rights and values not limited to respect and equitable access to healthcare services.

Besides, our services utilise culturally sensitive and trauma-informed safe care as existing frameworks to support excellence in our work and improve individuals’ quality of life and safety.

We collaborate with our selected GPs or mental healthcare practitioners, social workers and any carers, family members, and friends you would like to involve.
