Queensland Alliance for Mental Health (QAMH) is the peak body for the Community Mental Health and Wellbeing Sector in Queensland representing more than 120 organisations and stakeholders involved in the delivery of community mental health services across the state. At a national level, QAMH collaborates with Community Mental Health Australia and works alongside members to build capacity and to advocate on their behalf on issues that impact their operations and people who access their services.
