Resources

Wellbeing is an important part of mental health; it’s about feeling good, functioning well, having positive relationships, and a sense of a purpose and meaning. 

Orgyen has developed a two-part resource 'Universal, community-based approaches to enhance young people's wellbeing', for people working in youth mental health services or other sectors to help improve and support the wellbeing of young people.

Part one defines mental health and wellbeing, outlines reasons to enhance wellbeing and reviews the literature for universal, community-based interventions for boosting wellbeing in young people.

Part two centres on engaging the community to improve young people's wellbeing and provides a number of models and frameworks to inform and guide community engagement.
