Membership
As the national peak body for the mental health sector, Mental Health Australia is uniquely placed to influence the national debate on mental health issues and achieve our vision of mentally healthy people, mentally healthy communities.
Mental Health Australia advocates on behalf of a wide range of people working to improve the mental health and wellbeing of all Australians. This includes consumers and carers, families and friends, practitioners, service providers, researchers and policy makers. Our members play a vital role in helping advocate and ensure a united voice is heard in the development of key national mental health reform priorities.
Membership Events & Queries
Mental Health Australia holds a number of events for members and invited guests throughout the year. Events are usually held in Canberra and based around political sitting weeks to maximise opportunities for members to advocate and connect with politicians and stakeholders. Members are invited to these events via our membership database list, which is updated monthly.
