Mental Health Australia Ltd

Mental Health Australia is the national, independent peak body for the mental health sector. We have over 140 members, including service providers, professional bodies, organisations representing people with mental illhealth, family, carers and supporters, researchers and state and territory mental health peak bodies. As the national peak for mental health, we unite the mental health sector to present a cohesive voice to government, and provide practical policy solutions to influence decisionmaking, which in turn, improves the mental health system and the mental health of people in Australia. We work to strengthen the impact and influence of the mental health sector, and embed a human rights approach across the mental health system. The views and expertise of people with lived and living experience of mental illhealth, family, carers and supporters, along with our member organisations, underpins our work. We believe that by bringing together diverse perspectives across Mental Health Australia s members, the community and governments, we will create greater change and more innovative solutions, than what any of us could do working alone.
