About the review
In September 2022, we engaged Ninti One Limited, in partnership with First Nations Co., to review sector funding arrangements and service provider capability for:
- First Nations mental health and suicide prevention services
- the Integrated Team Care program.
These services are delivered through Primary Health Networks.
The review considered how we can best deliver these services in a way that supports the National Agreement on Closing the Gap.
