The DRAFT Queensland Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy (the Strategy) is now available to review. Community consultation on the draft strategy has now closed.
Health and Wellbeing Queensland is leading the development of the Strategy in partnership with the Queensland Mental Health Commission.
Wellbeing is the foundation for thriving individuals, communities and a thriving society. The aim of this Strategy is to focus on what keeps us well and improve mental health and wellbeing in Queensland. It will set principles that support, enhance, and promote good mental health and wellbeing and the prevention of mental ill-health.
The Strategy will align with and address the gaps in related government strategies. It will guide evidence-based promotion, prevention and early intervention initiatives that aim to support Queenslanders across their lives. The Strategy will also highlight the diverse needs and experiences of our communities, so that the mental health and wellbeing of all Queenslanders is protected and enhanced.
We thank all Queenslanders who attended in-person and online consultation sessions throughout April and May, and provided feedback on the draft Strategy.
We are currently in the process of collating and reviewing feedback, which will inform the development of the final Strategy. To receive updates on the progress of the Strategy, subscribe to our newsletter.
