Who is GMA?
Growing Minds Australia (GMA) is Australia's first clinical trials network dedicated to child and youth mental health and wellbeing. We are a dynamic and growing network of over 300 mental health experts, consisting of researchers, practitioners, people with lived and living experience, and policy makers.


Why are we important?
Poor mental health and wellbeing for Australian children and young people is a critical challenge, and many children, young people and their caregivers struggle to find the research backed mental health support and care they need to thrive.
GMA provides the central platform to come together to develop shared perspectives and priorities for child and youth mental health research, and undertake joint, high impact innovative research.


What do we do?
We are dedicated to supporting and strengthening child and youth mental health (CYMH) research capacity and capability across Australia so that research is collaborative, innovative, impactful and relevant to practice and to children and families.
Together, we are reshaping mental health research and care – ensuring children, young people, and families benefit from effective, research-backed support when it matters most.
