Aboriginal Mental Health Workers

Aboriginal Mental Health Workers are trained professionals who provide culturally sensitive mental health support to Indigenous communities. They understand the unique cultural, spiritual, and social contexts affecting Indigenous people's well-being. These workers help individuals navigate mental health challenges, connect them with appropriate services, and promote healing rooted in Indigenous traditions and values. Their role is vital in addressing disparities, building trust, and ensuring that mental health care respects cultural identities, ultimately supporting better outcomes and stronger community health.
