Barrett Adolescent Centre possible closure.


Since the Newman LNP Government was elected, it has done things to satisfy it's own weird ideology, it has done things that don't make any rational sense, it has torn down, closed, stopped any of the previous Governments decisions just because it was a Labor Government.

But this one, the possible closure of the Barrett Adolescent Centre is a new low for the Newman Government does it really want to turn back the clock a hundred years in Queensland, well since it was elected it has done things that make it on track to do so.

The Barrett Adolescent Centre has had a thirty year history of providing recovery-oriented transition care between inpatient treatment and community based youth mental health services for children at high risk of self-harm.

The previous Labor Government allocated $16 million for a new Centre at Redlands, but those funds have been redirected by the LNP Government for some weird reason only known to them.

For residents of Queensland you can show your disapproval by filling out this petition:
