Psychosocial Network Webinar

Members of MHA's Psychosocial Network Webinar are invited to join a webinar consultation on 13 August to discuss updates to our policy position on next steps to address unmet need for psychosocial support outside the NDIS.

At their June 2025 meeting, Health and Mental Health Ministers agreed to maintain existing funding for psychosocial services and that “addressing unmet psychosocial needs will be one of the central priorities in consideration of the next National Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Agreement.” However, this meeting fell short of genuinely progressing reform, and doesn’t go far enough for the 493,600 people who are currently missing out on these supports and need access now.  

Eight months on from the publication of our Statement on Addressing Unmet Need for Psychosocial Support Outside the NDIS, Mental Health Australia is seeking your views to update our policy position to reflect the current reform environment.

Your feedback will inform Mental Health Australia’s ongoing advocacy to the Productivity Commission on their review of the National Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Agreement, and leading into the next Health and Mental Health Ministers Meeting.

Please register to attend the webinar via the link below by COB 06 August. Meeting papers will be provided one week ahead of the webinar.
