RURAL OUTREACH COUNSELLING (ROC)

 ROC aims to significantly reduce suicide, the impact of depression and anxiety in rural families and communities throughout regional Australia. This aim will be achieved by reaching out proactively with help and support to those who can’t, or won’t, present to a General Practitioner (GP) or existing mental health services.
