The Victorian Government has launched the Diverse Communities Mental Health and Wellbeing Framework 2025-35 and the first Diverse Communities Blueprint for Action.

Our vision is for Victorians to access a safe and inclusive mental health and wellbeing system that reflects, embraces and responds to diversity.

This Framework was co-designed with people from diverse communities, including LGBTIQA+ Victorians, multicultural Victorians and Victorians with disability.

Forming part of the response to the Royal Commission's Recommendation 34, the Framework will guide the Victorian Government's actions over the next 10 years to:

  • support these communities
  • embed diversity, equity and inclusion through an intersectional lens across the whole mental health and wellbeing system.

The Diverse Communities Blueprint for Action 2025-28 is a snapshot of the government's actions over the next 3 years. It will identify and leverage opportunities within existing reform investments to enhance outcomes for diverse communities.
