About headspace
Who we are
​
headspace is Australia’s National Youth Mental Health Foundation, providing early intervention mental health services to 12-25 year olds.
​
Each year, headspace helps thousands of young people access vital support through our headspace centres in communities across Australia, our online and phone counselling services, our vocational services, and our presence in schools.
​
headspace can help young people with mental health, physical health (including sexual health), alcohol and other drug services, and work and study support
What we do
We support young people with mental health, physical health (including sexual health), alcohol and other drug services, as well as work and study support. With a focus on early intervention, we work with young people to provide support at a crucial time in their lives – to help get them back on track and strengthen their ability to manage their mental health in the future.
​
In everything we do, we aim to meet the evolving and unique needs of young people and those who support them. That’s why our youth reference groups are at the heart of our work, and they play an active role in designing, developing and evaluating our programs.
