The Mental Health Professionals' Network (MHPN) provides practitioners the opportunity to participate in our two interdisciplinary programs: MHPN practitioner networks and the National online professional development program.
Our local networks connect practitioners across metropolitan, rural, regional and remote Australia.
Our webinars feature leading experts in their field and cover a wide range of topical mental health issues.
Keep up-to-date with the latest in MHPN news and mental health events. Subscribe to our Connect e-news mailing list.
