The Ethnic Communities’ Council of Victoria (ECCV) consulted with community representatives from refugee and asylum seeker backgrounds to find out what facilitates and hinders mental health and wellbeing for them and their communities.
ECCV wanted to better understand if and how refugees and people seeking asylum in Victoria use mental health services and what the best pathways and support options are to improve their mental health.
ECCV found that new and emerging communities have difficulties accessing a complex health system and mental health services and are vulnerable to being left behind.
