Aboriginal Mental Health

Aboriginal mental health refers to the emotional, psychological, and social well-being of Indigenous peoples, shaped by their unique history, culture, and experiences. It encompasses factors such as intergenerational trauma, cultural disconnection, and social disadvantages that can impact mental health. Addressing Aboriginal mental health requires culturally sensitive approaches that recognize traditional practices, community involvement, and healing methods. Promoting awareness and access to appropriate support helps improve overall well-being, resilience, and quality of life for Indigenous communities.
