Today, the Vocational Mental Health Practitioners Association of Australia (VMHPAA) joins the global community in celebrating the International Day of Older Persons — a time to recognise the invaluable wisdom, resilience, and contributions of older generations who continue to shape our families, communities, and collective story.

Today, on World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development, the Vocational Mental Health Practitioners Association Australia (VMHPAA) celebrates the richness of cultural diversity and calls attention to the critical role vocationally trained mental health practitioners play in fostering culturally safe, inclusive, and responsive care.
