"Rural Australians are well known for their resilience in times of difficulty and uncertainty.  Living and working off the land has its own great rewards and also challenges, particularly in remote farming areas of the country.
The South Australian Government is working wiht rural communities to support local capacity and to sustain personal resilience in these times of stress.  Providing ways to assist people in caring for their mental wellbeing is critical to this.  It is equally important that we also care for our families, neighbours and communities by recognising emerging signs of problems that might require professional support.
This 9th Edition of Taking Care of Yourself and Your Family is an important collaboration between Country Health SA and beyondblue: the national depression initiative.  The content and helpline information has been revised to make it nationally relevant,drawing on beyondblue's experience in tackling drought and depression across Australia through the Don't beat about the bush! Campaign."
