Susan Teder
Susan lives at Grasstree Beach and grew up on a sugar cane farm in Sarina. She knows the struggles farming can bring. She went on to be a Nurse and later became a Social Worker. As a mother, grandmother and Mental Health Social Worker, Susan knows the importance of accessing good mental health care. She believes in equality, fairness and the right to have a voice.
Susan is committed to her community and those disadvantaged. She has worked in rural outreach areas including the mines and services to support people experiencing homelessness. For years Susan has run a small team of Mental Health clinicians working in Mental Health and Trauma work and for the disadvantaged and for suicide prevention.
A committed community advocate, Susan wants to see the Miles Labor Government’s cost of living relief continue in Mirani. She has seen firsthand how her community has benefited from $1000 off their electricity bills and has seen families thrive through $200 Fair Play vouchers for kids. She is committed to supporting rural communities, indigenous families and their youth.
As your representative for Mirani, Susan will fight for a better, fairer Queensland and protect her community from the LNP’s attack on public health services.
