Mental Health Commission
The Mental Health Commission (Commission) is leading the development of a new Western Australian Mental Health and Alcohol and Other Drugs Strategy 2025-2030 (Strategy). This will be the new system-wide Strategy, guiding the transformation of the state’s mental health and alcohol and other drugs systems to empower and support people, families and communities in their wellbeing. It will outline the Aspirations, Strategic Pillars and Focus Areas for systems transformation, building on past gains and current reforms.
To assist in finalising the Strategy, the Commission is seeking final feedback on the Strategy’s proposed strategic directions. The draft directions reflect the diverse voices heard through the consultation processes, including people with lived and living experience, their families, carers and significant others, service providers, individuals, peak bodies, government and non-government agencies and communities. The proposed strategic directions have been developed based on these consultations, building on previous work, the strong evidence base and related government priorities.
You can provide final high-level feedback on critical issues relating to the Strategy’s proposed strategic directions prior to 26 September 2025 by emailing MHAODStrategyFeedback@mhc.wa.gov.au.
