Meet Your Neighbour Forum - Break Thru Parramatta

On Thursday 8th July, Break Thru Parramatta hosted it’s first Meet Your Neighbour Forum, run by the Mental Health Co-ordinating Council.

The event had over 30 attendees from local networks including Apprenticeship Centres, JCA’s, Mental Health contacts, Centrelink sites, and many other Disability Networks. The forum provided opportunity for those attending to swap information and experiences that may be relevant to other organisations in our industry field.

As a result, Break Thru were able to provide exposure to ‘Care for Families’ and we have all been invited to participate in Mental Health Awareness week in the local government area.

Parramatta staff continue to build rapport with networks that were established at the ‘Meet Your Neighbour’ forum.
