The National Mental Health Consumer Alliance is Australia’s federated mental health consumer peak body. As a member of the Alliance, together we collectively unite the strength of lived experience across the country. This Mental Health Month, the Alliance has launched their new website.

What you’ll find:
All their policy submissions, position papers, reports, campaigns, webinars, and newsletters - all in one place.

But there's also a great deal that's new:
1. A chronological history of the mental health consumer movement
This timeline was created by the Alliance to document and honour the history of the Australian mental health consumer movement; the advocates, survivors, organisations and moments of courage that shaped the sector we have today.
2. A comprehensive resource library
The resource library is the companion to the consumer movement history timeline. While the timeline maps the events, the people, and the turning points, the resource library holds the documents - the actual texts that shaped this movement. The reports, the articles, the frameworks, the policy papers, and the collective statements.

It's an opportunity to pause, check in with ourselves and those around us, and reflect on how we can look after our mental health and wellbeing.

A simple conversation, a kind message, or taking the time to listen can make a meaningful difference.

This World Mental Health Day, let's help raise awareness, reduce stigma, and create a community where everyone feels safe to seek support when they need it. đź’š

Following yesterday’s fire at the North West Regional Hospital’s Spencer Clinic, the Department of Health is encouraging the North West community to help save emergency health services for emergencies.

If you need emergency healthcare or mental healthcare, please do not hesitate to visit your nearest emergency department or call Triple Zero (000). Our staff will be there for you to provide the care and support you need.

But if it is not an emergency, there are many other community-based health services available that might be right for you.

The Alliance is proud to announce that, for the first time, we have been recognised as a Disability Representative Organisation under the Australian Government's Disability Representative Organisations (DRO) Program.
This new status means that the Alliance is now funded to undertake advocacy on behalf of people with psychosocial disability through the DRO Program. It is an important step forward in ensuring the voices, experiences and priorities of people with psychosocial disability are represented in national disability policy, reform and service design.
