MoreChanging for Good receives funding extension
The Changing for Good program will receive funding for an additional 12 months from the Department of Social Services. This funding extension will allow the service to continue to help men make long-lasting changes to their violent behaviour.
MoreMental health services in regional and remote Australia
Recent reports suggest that Australians living in regional and remote areas are not able to access the mental health support they need. One in five Australians will experience a mental health disorder each year, and with 29% of the population living in regional or remote areas, the need for mental health services is significant. On the Line’s Suicide Call Back Service and MensLine Australia counselling services can fill some of these gaps.

On the Line welcomes the news that Suicide Call Back Service will receive an additional $400,000 in funding from the Department of Health. This funding boost will help the service to meet the increased demand from people needing to talk to counsellors in their time of need.
