The Australian’s recent series on mental health has documented some shocking stories, on a human and a policy level, from our failing approach to mental health in Australia, Mind Australia CEO Gill Callister says.
It’s sad but clear evidence of a system that is not designed to help those most in need. This doesn’t happen with other health conditions, such as cancer.
In 2025 Mind Australia is proud to celebrate 10 years of supporting Queenslanders experiencing mental health challenges, as well as their families, carers and supporters.
Mind Australia has an exciting opportunity for an intern to get on the job training at Haven Pakenham while they complete their Certificate IV or Diploma of Mental Health.
The six-month full-time placement will give the intern first-hand experience supporting residents at Haven Pakenham with daily tasks and to achieve their long-term goals.
December- January is the so-called holiday season but it’s not always fun for everyone.
It can mean greater feelings of loneliness and isolation for people who don’t spend it with family or friends, or family conflicts for people who do. For many, the holiday season means extra financial difficulties.
