Round 2 of the Mental Health Innovation Fund has opened, and organisations have been urged to apply for a share of the funds.
Goulburn MP Pru Goward said the fund offered the best minds in business, the community sector and government an opportunity to develop and deliver new ways to help people living with mental illness.
“By funding these ideas, we can enhance the way we deliver person-centred care that focuses on consumers, particularly at the community level,” she said.
Expressions of interest for the second round are now open, with target innovation areas including:
- Mental health and intellectual disability/cognitive impairment
- Aboriginal mental health
- Mental health and youth homelessness
- Adult education
- Child and youth mental health
Collaborating partners may include start-ups, non-government organisations, the private sector, local businesses, carers or individuals working alongside all levels of government.
Applications close May 9, 2017. Details: https://tenders.nsw.gov.au/.
