This grant opportunity will enable all people living in Australia to access mental health supports via digital and online channels at a time and place that suits their personal needs and preferences.
Overview
The Digital Mental Health Program will be underpinned by high-level principles to ensure it:
- has a positive impact for individuals seeking help, their families, and the broader community;
- provides value with money;
- is evidence-based or practice-informed, with a strong focus on outcome measurement and monitoring;
- is accessible;
- is sustainable; and
- focusses on areas of greatest need.
To ensure the safety and quality of digital mental health services in Australia, all future government funded organisations will be required to be accredited against the National Safety and Quality Digital Mental Health Standards.
