The Lighthouse for Perth

About

What: Ensure any young person in crisis is supported without delay or the need for any waiting list, providing a rapid response on the day whenever there is a perceived risk to life and provide the appropriate whole family support as needed. Also build the resilience of our young people and community in regards to mental health and suicide prevention. How: Increase in staffing has allowed us to maintain a no waiting list approach and every young person reaching out for support has been successfully guided through recovery and now has the copying strategies and resilience to maintaining their own mental health. We also offered family support to every young person’s carers and gave them the tools to also support their young person to a place of recovery and saftey.
