RSL Victoria acknowledges that the many challenges and uncertainties over the past few years have greatly strained mental health within the veteran community. We feel it is essential to continue the ethos of compassion and service with which our organisation was founded by providing our community with this vital program.
The RSL Mental Health Initiative will provide various free workshops to those seeking to help family, friends, co-workers, or others in the veteran community. RSL Victoria sees this initiative as an opportunity to develop a solid coordinated approach to support Victoria's veteran community's mental health and well-being. We welcome all those providing support to the community to attend workshops being conducted through the assistance of local Sub-Branches.
