National Disability Outlook

The 2023 edition of National Disability Outlook is now available! Mental Illness Fellowship Australia was thrilled to be asked to write the mental health opinion piece for this year’s edition. Hayley Abell, MIFA’s Director of Strategy and Advocacy, writes about our ongoing advocacy efforts to unlock greater investment in psychosocial supports.  

There are at least 154,000 people in Australia currently missing out on the psychosocial supports they need to live the life they want and support their mental health and wellbeing. We have a solution – the implementation of a National Psychosocial Support Program – and we continue to advocate for immediate investment so people can get the support they deserve and need in their local community. Read about our advocacy strategies and why this investment is so important.
