The former staff of ACT Recovery College are excited to announce their award presented at The Mental Health Services Learning Network - Themhs Awards for the Psychosocial and/or Support category!

This category was awarded for services or programs which support a person to move towards one or more of his/her stated life goals – looking beyond the diagnosis of a mental illness to autonomy on a wider “stage”.

A huge thank you to the ACT Government, Mental Health Community Coalition ACT and ACT Health for providing Canberra the incredible opportunity to experience the trial of the College here in the ACT.

We hope to see the continuation of the teams hard work in the future to benefit the Canberra Community.
