flag Australia allocates $72.7M to expand youth mental health services amid rising distress.

flag The Albanese government has allocated $72.7 million to expand headspace services across Australia, aiming to reduce wait times, increase staffing, and improve mental health support for young people. flag A national survey reveals 49% of young Australians are experiencing high or very high psychological distress, with rates rising among older youth, LGBTIQA+ individuals, First Nations young people, and women. flag Despite these challenges, there's growing help-seeking behavior and increased confidence in the future, attributed to better support access and reduced stigma. flag The funding will enhance services, including therapy options, infrastructure, and culturally inclusive programs, with early results showing positive impacts.
