Welcome

The National Mental Health Consumer and Carer Forum (NMHCCF) is the combined national voice for consumers and carers participating in the development of mental health policy and sector development in Australia.

Through its membership, the NMHCCF gives mental health consumers and carers the opportunity to meet, form partnerships and be involved in the development and implementation of mental health reform.

Our Aims

To utilise our lived experience and unique expertise in mental health to identify what does and does not work in the mental health sector.
To identify important and innovative ways to bring about positive change within the mental health system.
To be a powerful, respected, combined national voice for mental health consumers and carers.
