Resources in Community Languages

On this page we have resources created by CASS and by other organisations in a variety of languages. We put this page together as we know it can be very difficult to find appropriate mental health information in a variety of languages.

Please note, CASS is not responsible for the content of external resources. Some of the resources may include local information which is not relevant to Bristol. If you have any comments regarding the translations of these materials or know of any resource we should add, please get in touch at info@cassbristol.org
