Conclusion of Autism Mental Health Project supports
16 Jun 2026
The Autism Queensland (AQ) Autism & Mental Health Project will conclude on 30 June 2026. The project delivered funded autism-specific training for mental health practitioners and organisations, and general practitioners.
We thank the Australian Government for their support of this project. Since the commencement of the project in 2020, we have delivered 154 funded autism-specific workshops to 3032 mental health practitioners across Queensland, supporting the delivery of best-practice mental health care within the community. From June 30, these funded services will no longer be available as the funding period has ended.
This project received funding from the Australian Government Department of Health, Disability and Ageing.
While funded sessions will end, we will continue to offer bespoke training packages focused on autism and mental health supports and ticketed mental health-specific workshops and learning opportunities.
