Those working with young people will welcome a focus on helping young people to cope with depression which begins this month.

Health Promotions Agency is mailing posters and flyers promoting The Lowdown website https://thelowdown.co.nz/ for young people to all secondary schools in February. A radio campaign will also take place.

The depression.org.nz website is also being re-developed over the coming months and will be advertised on television. The new Depression.org.nz will include information about anxiety as well as depression.

Mental health and all of the Health Promotion Agency’s free printresources have been moved to a new site http://order.hpa.org.nz/. For more information about HPA see:hpa.org.nz/what-we-do/mental-health
