Funded Activity Summary

Many young people with mental health problems do not get adequate professional help because they lack relevant knowledge. This study will find out what type of knowledge is important for improving appropriate help-seeking by young Australians. Young people who were surveyed two years earlier to assess their mental health knowledge will be followed up to see whether they developed a mental health problem and what action they took to deal with it.
