Strategy outcomes and delivery plan priority areas have been mapped against the goals of the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act (2015). The priority areas identified in the delivery plan are: all children have the best possible start in life, enabled by giving parents / care-givers the support they need; all children and young people are more resilient and better able to tackle poor mental well-being when it occurs; children and young people experiencing mental health problems get better sooner; people at working age are more resilient and better able to tackle poor mental well-being when it occurs; people with mental health problems, their families and carers are treated with dignity and respect; services meet the needs of the diverse population of Wales; People with a mental health problem have access to appropriate, evidence based and timely services; People of all ages experience sustained improvement to their mental health and well-being through access to positive life chances; Wales is a ‘Dementia Friendly Nation’;The quality of life for older people is improved, particularly through addressing loneliness and isolation.
