Western Australia’s first Recovery College a true collaboration

On 2 December 2019, the Minister for Mental Health announced that HelpingMinds has been appointed to provide the first state-wide Recovery College with $3.6 million invested by the State Government over three and a half years.

The MHC has provided HelpingMinds with funding to roll out the Recovery College across Western Australia. HelpingMinds has partnered with a group of organisations to roll out the Recovery College across Western Australia making it accessible to people across regional areas.

The Western Australian Recovery College will be person centred and complement existing mental health, alcohol and other drug support services. It will enable self-directed recovery, and mental health, alcohol and other drug learning opportunities in a safe and welcoming place.
