Wellways Australia is a leading national mental health and disability support organisation with services in Queensland, ACT, NSW, Victoria and Tasmania.

We work with a diverse range of people, their families and carers to identify needs and goals to build good lives in the community This includes creating a home, getting a job and building meaningful relationships. 

We also deliver services to people with multiple, complex needs and often do this in partnership with clinical services, health support agencies and government.

Our services are informed by current evidence on mental health, rehabilitation and community inclusion, together with an understanding of people’s lived experience – what works for them.
 
We are a registered NDIS service provider. Our knowledgeable staff have the right community connections. We offer: support co-ordination, group based activities, assistance to access community, skills development, assistance with household tasks and personal care, housing and tenancy, help with budgeting and travel training.

Many of our staff draw from their own experience of mental health issues to provide peer support in services, education courses, advocacy workshops and our advice and referral Helpline. 
 
Our commitment to advocacy is central. We consult with consumers, carers, government and local business to ensure people have better opportunities to get well, stay well and fully participate in the community without stigma.
