MindMap ACT

✨MindMap Service Spotlight✨

Youth Law Centre ACT is an awesome service providing specialist legal support to young people.

They can provide support to navigate many different challenges related to the law such as discrimination, work rights, consent, family safety, driving and car accidents, just to name a few.

If you are looking for help, even if you're not sure your issue is a legal one, reach out to YLC and speak to the team. If they can't help with your particular challenge, they will work to refer you to other supports. 🧡

🏥🩹 International Nurses Day 🩹🏥

Today is a day for gratitude and celebration of Nurses, and their incredible contributions to our communities. Did you know that nurses make up the largest sector in the health workforce with over 450,000 nurses in Australia?

Nursing is a diverse, broad and essential profession. We want to give a shout out to all nurses and their contribution to the health and mental health of those they support.

Are you wanting support for your own mental health, but aren’t sure where to start? 

Our Youth Navigators are here to lend a listening ear and guide you to the mental health support you need. We are available everyday from 11am to 10pm via phone, webchat and email.

🎒Tips for a Smooth Transition Back to School🎒

Returning to school after a lengthy break can be challenging, but there are effective strategies to ease the transition.

📝Establish a Routine! Consistency is key! Set a regular bedtime and wake-up time leading up to the start of school. This will help you readjust and feel more organised.

📝Take a Deep Breath! Practicing mindfulness techniques can be beneficial when you start to feel overwhelmed. Check out helpful resources on mindfulness at the MindMap website.

📝Plan Ahead! Whether you're planning a few days, a week, a month, or even the entire year in advance, being proactive will help you stay focused and organised with school tasks.
