Let's Talk: Youth Mental Health Forum

Join us for the Youth Mental Health Forum focused on one of the most pressing issues of our time: social media and its impact on young people. The highlight of this forum will be "The Big Debate"—a discussion on whether social media should be banned for individuals under the age of 18.   

This event will bring together youth leaders, mental health experts, educators, and community members to explore the benefits and risks of social media use among young people. Topics will include the influence of social media on mental health, the potential for cyberbullying and addiction, and the role of digital platforms in education and social connection.   

Participants will hear from both sides of the debate, with compelling arguments for and against the ban, followed by an open forum where attendees can share their thoughts and experiences. The goal is to engage in a balanced and insightful discussion that considers the well-being of youth in a digital age.   

This is an essential conversation for anyone concerned about the intersection of youth mental health and social media. Whether you're a young person, a parent, an educator, or simply interested in the topic, we invite you to join us for what promises to be a impactful discussion. 

Light refreshments included. For any questions, contact admin@mhfa.org.au or call 03 8825 3500.
