Western Australian Association for Mental Health (WAAMH)

The Western Australian Association for Mental Health (WAAMH) is the peak body for community mental health in Western Australia.

Our membership comprises community-managed organisations providing mental health services, programs or supports and people and families with lived experience of mental health issues and suicide, with whom WAAMH engages in genuine partnership. We also engage with a wide network of collaborative relationships at a state and national level with individuals, organisations and community members who share our values and objectives.

WAAMH influences community attitudes, mental health priorities, policy and practice through mental health promotion, systemic advocacy and development so Western Australians have the rights, resources and support needed for mental wellbeing, recovery, and citizenship.

Please note WAAMH is the peak body representing community mental health services in WA and does not provide clinical assistance or direct services.
