The Queensland Plan for Mental Health 2007-2017 (‘the Plan’) outlines the Queensland Government’s plan to reform and improve mental health service over the next 10 years.
The Plan challenges government, private sector, and non-government organisations to work collaboratively to provide recovery-oriented, consumer-focused mental health services that:
promote mental health and wellbeing
where possible prevent mental health problems and mental illness
reduce the impact of mental illness on individuals, their families and the community
promote recovery and build resilience
enable people who live with a mental illness to participate meaningfully in society.
The Queensland Government has set clear targets to measure and evaluate progress over the next 10 years.
