About the Webinar
Accessing mental health care in Australia is complex and not meeting the needs of the community, with many help-seekers forced to navigate a fragmented, confusing and at times, traumatising, system. The resulting delays in identifying and engaging appropriate care is driving negative health and social outcomes.
In 2024, the Commonwealth Department of Health commissioned SANE Australia and a consortium of sector experts to explore help-seeking barriers and recommend consumer-centric solutions that enable access to the right mental health care, when and where it’s needed.
Following extensive consultation with over 2,000 consumers, carers, service providers and subject matter experts across Australia, the Project group delivered the final Digital Navigation Report to Government.
In this webinar, Project leads will share findings from the consultation process and discuss the recommendations provided in the Report. Presenters include:
- Krista Vanderheide, Assistant Secretary, System Enablers, Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care
- Rachel Green, SANE Australia
- Monique Jackson, NOUS Group
- Professor Nicola Reavley, University of Melbourne
- Jeanette Chan, Lived Experience Researcher and Consultant
Time will be allocated for questions. We hope you’ll join us and be part of this important conversation.
