With support from the BHP Vital Resource fund, Ungooroo Aboriginal Corporation’s psychology services are addressing issues of social isolation, home confinement, economic uncertainty and other factors affecting our mental well-being. Challenges with mental health and well-being are not new but are certainly being compounded by the uncertainty that the COVID-19 virus brings. Please be aware that an eligibility criteria applies to access this service.
