Archived Grant Opportunity View - GO5486

The Australian Government is inviting organisations via a restricted process to apply to deliver services over 4 years from 2021-22 to 2024-25. The Mental health training package for the legal assistance sector program (the program) is a single grant opportunity.

The objective of this program is to improve service delivery by the legal assistance sector to people who are experiencing mental health issues or at risk of suicide. The successful provider will develop and deliver a national online mental health training package accessible to all legal assistance service providers to assist them to identify mental health issues and better support people in distress or at risk of suicide.

The program was announced as part of the 2021-22 Budget and contributes to the Government’s Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Plan. This grant program responds to Recommendation 4.2 of the National Suicide Prevention Adviser’s report Connected and Compassionate: Implementing a national whole of governments approach to suicide prevention. The funding for the grant program is being delivered through the Community Legal Services Program (CLSP).

To be eligible to receive a grant, you must be one of the organisations listed in the Grant Opportunity Guidelines and have received an invitation to apply through GrantConnect.
