About Neami National

At Neami, we aspire to place lived and living experience at the heart of what we do. We strive to learn from personal experiences of mental health and or adversity to grow and design better programs and services. 

We know the mental health system can work better. So, as one of Australia’s largest mental health specialists, we use our voice to fight for change and system improvements that will benefit all Australians. 

From peer support workers to psychologists – we are not just ‘staff’ or ‘case workers’. We’re people. People who listen; people who care; people who come from different backgrounds – including people who have walked their own mental health journey.

We’re people who believe that wellbeing and quality of life are possible for everyone in different ways.  

The implementation of Indigenous Governance Principles across the organisation and our programs is a key focus for Neami. The principles look to address the issues of power and ownership imbalance so that we may ‘bridge the gap’. 

We understand that safe, accessible and culturally responsive services and workplaces, require a whole-of-organisation approach that celebrates, values and includes people of all backgrounds, identities, cultures and experiences. 

We believe working in this way makes our teams, services and organisation stronger and more effective.
