Investing in early intervention services and support can help young people experiencing mental health concerns achieve their potential and reduce the lifelong human and economic impacts of mental illness. The Government spends about $2 billion annually on mental health services. In the 2019 Wellbeing Budget, young people were one of the groups the Government’s $1.9 billion investment into mental health and well-being focused on. We wanted to know whether this government spending was making a difference for young people aged 12 to 24 years." (From the website).
