<p>Mental health should be seen as a valued source of human capital or well-being in society.

We need good mental health to succeed in all areas of life.</p><p>Yet, individuals with mental ill-health are often shunned and denied access to care, with services for promoting and protecting mental health and preventing ill-health often starved of resources.
