The issue was that Jeff Kennett closed the institutions with the idea that there would be support in the community, and then the funding for that support later got slashed.
Yeah. I was quite young when he was in so not familiar with much more than that, but it seems like he had a lasting impact.
It’s probably really good the institutions were closed due to the human rights violations. But austerity and cuts in mental health have done so much damage.
My area is still recovering from all the secondary school closures. There used to be quite a few, and now there’s a population explosion in the area and only 2 high schools bursting at the seams with 2,000 students each! Makes me so mad!
