Help Shape the Future of Youth Mental Health Care

headspace and the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing are seeking public feedback on the draft headspace Plus Model of Care. This initiative aims to strengthen support for young people by addressing their evolving and interconnected mental, physical, and sexual health needs.

This draft model has been developed through extensive collaboration with the headspace network, mental health experts, service providers, and other key stakeholders. Now, your input is essential to ensure the model reflects the diverse needs of our communities.

By participating in this consultation process, you can help shape services that better support young people with more complex and overlapping challenges. The consultation period is open until 11 June 2026, and we encourage everyone, from community members, service providers, and other stakeholders, to contribute their feedback.
