About This Cause
headspace is the National Youth Mental Health Foundation providing early intervention mental health services to 12-25-year olds. Each year, headspace helps thousands of young people access vital support through our headspace services in 170 communities across Australia, our online and phone counselling services, our vocational services, and our presence in schools. headspace can help young people with mental health, physical health (including sexual health) alcohol and other drug services, and work and study support. 2 in 5 young people in Australia experience a mental health issue each year. Sadly, suicide is still the leading cause of death in people aged between 12-25 and 75 per cent of mental health disorders emerge before a person turns 25. Since establishment in 2006, headspace has supported more than 770,000 young Australians, providing 4.5 million occasions of service to strengthen their wellbeing, manage mental health, get through challenging times and get back on track. headspace has a unique model of care for young people, and we are the only dedicated youth mental health service in Australia, with presence on the ground and across all major metro, regional and rural areas, as well as online, over the phone and in schools. Young people all over Australia can access support by headspace wherever they are. How your support makes a difference Funds donated to headspace contribute to priority projects which play a critical role in growing our reach and impact. These include helping headspace pilot and scale programs, increase our service delivery, provide enhanced support for family and friends of young people, and ensure that young people can access the right support, when they need it and how they want it.
