Closed petition Rename the Mental Health Act to the Mind Health Act.

Closed on

Change the name of the Mental Health Act to the Mind Health Act, and use the term Mind Health in Government communication.

Some people find the words Mental Health offensive. Mind Health would be a more appropriate label, as would the Mind Health Act as well, to replace the words of the Mental Health Act.
