Taking mental health programs to the people.
Everyone should have access to mental health programs. Well Thanks funds the delivery of Australia's leading mental health programs into the communities that need them most — especially those in regional and rural Australia.
Mental health used to be something people didn't talk about much.
Whilst progress has been made in encouraging those experiencing mental health challenges to feel safe discussing their problems, the data sadly reveals that the incidence of suicide continues at an alarming rate. Mental health charities across Australia play a vital role in changing that.
Support services
Counselling, helplines and peer support groups that offer a safe space for people to seek help and guidance.
Advocacy & awareness
Pushing for better mental health policy at every level of government, and challenging stigma within communities.
Education & training
Programs that build mental health literacy and give schools, workplaces and communities the skills to respond.
Research & innovation
Funding research into mental health conditions, treatment and prevention that advances evidence-based care.
Community engagement
Events, campaigns and initiatives that build social connectedness, resilience and reduce isolation.
Crisis intervention
Suicide prevention hotlines and crisis support that offer a lifeline to people in the darkest moments.
Community engagement and education, delivered where access is limited.
Well Thanks recognises that many communities in Australia are vulnerable, and lack the resources to tap into educational and training programs. Our work is centred on Community Engagement and the delivery of Education and Training.
Money raised by the Foundation funds the delivery of mental health programs into communities that encourage conversation, recognition and positive action — both for people experiencing mental health conditions, and those around them.
