About Our Challenge
In June, the DHSVAD community is taking part in The Push Up Challenge. Together, we will help shine a spotlight on the number of lives lost to suicide each year and raise awareness of mental health across Australia.
Our students, staff and families can create a Team within our community, join an existing Team or support someone who is taking part. Every push up completed represents a real mental health statistic and reminds us why this challenge is so important.
By participating, donating or cheering on our teams, you are helping us push for better mental health outcomes for young people and the wider community.
Help us push for better mental health.
Supporting headspace
headspace is Australia’s National Youth Mental Health Foundation, providing early intervention mental health services for 12-25 year olds.
Each year, headspace helps thousands of young people access vital support through our headspace centres in over 175 communities across Australia, our online and phone counselling services, our vocational services, and our presence in schools.
The support headspace receives from the community helps us achieve our vision - that all young Australians are supported to be mentally healthy and engaged in their communities.
