Half of all mental health conditions start before the age of 18. Many of them can be prevented.

Yet less than 1% of federal mental health spending goes to preventing mental illness.

We’re calling on the Federal Government to grow the mental health budget so at least 5% goes to prevention, without cutting the services people rely on.

We’re also asking for a dedicated Prevention and Wellbeing Fund to scale up programs we already know work, and for the Prime Minister’s department to lead it across government.

Add your name, and we’ll take it to Parliament.
