Our mental health affects how we think, feel and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. The National Study of Mental Health and Wellbeing highlights that mental health disorders impact nearly half of the population, with nearly 20% experiencing suicidal thoughts.
At the Centre for Mental Health, we work to raise knowledge and understanding about substance use, its causes and consequences and responses to reduce harmful effects. Our internationally recognised researchers have developed solutions that have a transformative impact on individual lives and communities—helping to create a better future for all.
