Clint Stanaway, of Network Nine News, reported on Dandenong Ranges nursery 'Bonsai - the imagination tree' and its successful community project on 21.5.07. The program involves people with a psychiatric disability working at the nursery. Stanaway's report highlighted the benefit that employment has for people with a mental illness involved in the program.
StigmaWatch contacted Mr Stanaway to congratulate him on the report, which encouraged community acceptance and took a humanising approach to the issue of mental illness.
