I'm the member for lane cove in the YMCA NSW Youth Parliament 2015. Every year, there's a petition debate, with the petition with the most signatures being discussed. 
          	
          	Currently, mental health is OPTIONAL to be taught in schools. This needs to change. My petition requests to make mental health teaching in schools mandatory, and change the structure of teaching in order to REDUCE STIGMA and ENCOURAGE HELP-SEEKING BEHAVIOURS. 
          	
          	There is no greater time than now to make a change. Mental health is the leading topic in global discussion and NSW is allowing its students to learn a biased, false, stigmatised view of mental health IF THEY ARE EVEN TAUGHT IT AT ALL.
          	
          	 I urge you all to please sign and share around. IF YOU ARE IN AUSTRALIA, Every single signature means the world to me. More information and link is here:
