A pilot program will be developed for young women struggling with mental health issues.
UniSA researchers have won $100,000 to fund key mental health projects to help young women, veterans, and stroke patients, who often struggle with depression.
The Breakthrough Mental Health Research Foundation (Breakthrough) has partnered with UniSA to investigate mental health triggers in these areas and look at the most effective treatments.
Professor Nicole Moulding, Dr Michele Jarldorn and Dr Jane Andrew will use the funds to develop a pilot mental health peer support program for young women at risk.
Helping veterans who are struggling with mental health issues will be the focus of another project involving Dr Dannielle Post, Professor Gaynor Parfitt, Dr Katherine Baldock and Dr Kate Gunn.
