Abstract
The Mental Health Coordinating Council (MHCC) is the peak body representing mental health community managed organisations (CMOs)1 in NSW. Our members provide a range of psychosocial and clinical services, and support programs, as well as advocacy, education, training and information services with a focus on recovery-oriented practice. MHCC’s membership consists of over 200 organisations whose business or activity is wholly or in part related to the promotion and/or delivery of services for the wellbeing and recovery of people affected by mental health conditions. We work in partnership with both State and Commonwealth Governments to promote recovery and social inclusion for people affected by mental health conditions, participate extensively in policy and sector development and facilitate linkages between government, community and private sectors in order to affect systemic change. MHCC manages and conducts research projects and develops collaborative projects on behalf of the sector. MHCC is also a registered training organisation (MHCC Learning & Development) delivering nationally accredited mental health training and professional development to the community managed workforce across all human services.
