Information sheets

Each year 1 in 5 Victorians experience mental illness, and many more are affected by the illness of their partner, family member, friend or work colleague.

The vision of Because mental health matters is to ensure all Victorians have the opportunities they need to maintain good mental health, while providing access to timely, high quality care for those with a mental illness and supporting them to live successfully in the community. 

These information sheets detail how the Victorian government will support good mental health and wellbeing for all Victorians over the next decade.
