Parents Without Partners AdelaideWe started out as Dads in Distress, on Father’s Day 1999.
Our founder was Tony Miller OAM.
Back then, we operated one dads group that met periodically on a veranda in Coffs Harbour, NSW.Tony kicked off the group after he could not find any support that he needed as a recently separated and highly distressed dad; in fact it led him to contemplate taking his own life more than once.
Others heard about his work and they volunteered to set up their own local groups.https://parentsbeyondbreakup.com/Call : 1300 853 437 (or +61 2 6652 8113)
This provides us with an opportunity to take stock of where India stands in this aspect.
To put it in a gist long-pending actions such as framing policy and exploring the Indian methods such as Yoga have been taken care of in the recent years.
This act made universal mental healthcare a reality assuring free treatment for all mentally ill persons including the homeless even if they do not possess a BPL card.
It also noted the important role families play in providing care for mentally ill and need to provide support to such families not only financially but also provide guidance to them in terms of accessing mental health services and information related to mental health.
After the gap of 15 years, National Health Policy was adopted in 2017.
In a country so vast like India it proposes the community-based approach to address mental health issues.
