The Towards Wellness: Adelaide Metropolitan Integrated Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Plan (Towards Wellness) formalises the commitment of key local service providers to work together towards system improvement and ensure people who experience mental health challenges or are at risk of suicide across the metropolitan region can access the right support, at the right time and in the right place.
The development and delivery of this plan is led by Adelaide PHN, Central Adelaide Local Health Network (CALHN), Southern Adelaide Local Health Network (SALHN), Northern Adelaide Local Health Network (NALHN), the Women’s and Children’s Health Network (WCHN), Wellbeing SA and the Office of the Chief Psychiatrist SA.
Towards Wellness is underpinned by the Fifth National Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Plan, and was informed by a local needs assessment and consultations with the Adelaide community including mental health care providers, people with a lived experience of mental health challenges and their carers.
The collaborating partners look forward to keeping the Adelaide community updated on the progress of Towards Wellness plan over the five year implementation period (2020-2025).
We acknowledge the Kaurna peoples who are the traditional Custodians of the Adelaide region. We pay tribute to their physical and spiritual connection to land, waters and community, enduring now as it has been throughout time. We pay respect to them, their culture and to Elders past and present. We would also like to acknowledge and pay our respects to those Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people from other Nations who live, work, travel and contribute on Kaurna Country.
