A Chance For Change is a social enterprise being set up for the purpose of people OVER 50 reengaging with the world around them after suffering from acute depression. A CHANCE FOR CHANGE is a Social Enterprise Organisation dedicated to helping people over 50 years of age in Australia regain a true sense of purpose and begin the journey back from the darkness of acute depression. Our Motto is 'IF, NOTHING CHANGES, NOTHING CHANGES'
HOW
By helping to provide resources (Funding) for both Governmental & Private Service Providers to engage sufferers in beneficial & meaningful educational, social, physical & emotional support programs so they have the tools required to WALK TALL in their communities. We also intend to provide outreach programs to more remote areas that lack a direct conduit to Mental Health Professionals due mainly to a lack of knowledge of how to get assistance. This is not a realistic solution to a very complex growing problem in all communities across the "LUCKY COUNTRY". It is up to all persons in OUR country to do their bit to end the misery for so many people.......and help provide PURPOSE for the those less fortunate. While ever we continue to procrastinate, sufferers of Mental Illnesses will continue to fall through the cracks and as our population continues to age we will in a short few years no longer have the chance to make REAL CHANGE.
