ChemCert Training Group is proud to support the Black Dog Institute this financial year in their mission to prevent and treat mental illness. One in five Australians are affected by mental illness every year (depression being the most common form), touching people of all ages, places and occupations.
The Black Dog Institute is a not-for-profit organisation and world leader in the diagnosis, early intervention, prevention and treatment of mental illness such as depression and bipolar disorder.
They are at the forefront of suicide prevention and prominent in the delivery of treatments and programs using technology and online platforms (e-Health). Their online and offline treatment and research programs are translated directly to clinical interventions and education programs for community, workplace and schools.
Black Dog relies on people in the community to help fund their work and every little bit makes a huge long-term difference.
