Federal Budget 2024-25

The 2024/25 Federal Budget has not adequately delivered investment that responds to the scale of the problem we know exists in our community. Mental Health Australia has consistently advocated for mental health reform to be prioritised, and while the investments made in this budget demonstrate that the government is broadly listening, we are not seeing the level of investment, scalability or longevity that is needed to truly transform mental health in Australia. It is clear there is more to do.
