Action for Mental Health and Dementia

Advocacy happens every time someone speaks on behalf of another person and every time someone supports another to speak out for themselves. Sometimes people with mental health issues feel they are ignored or that everything they say is seen as part of their 'illness'. If you feel like this, having an advocate can give you the confidence to speak up. Advocacy is NOT about: telling you what to say or do, guessing what you think, counselling, therapy, mediation, or advising.
