Headspace

By Survivingana @survivingana

headspace is the Australian National Youth Mental Health Foundation that I follow and receive their newsletter. Basically headspace offer 12-25yr health advice, support and information:

  • General health
  • Mental health and counselling
  • Education, employment and other services
  • Alcohol and other drug services
  • and many other issues that worry or affect our youth.

Today I wanted to highlight their research evidence map search database they have on their site. There is research there going back several years relating to every type of mental health illness, substance abuse, self harm etc.

For anyone wanting to get easy access to relevant and up-to-date information please consider using their research function. There are still 2011 and 2012 research outcomes that need to be added but I am hoping they get to this soon.
