Headspace funding to increase

The Federal government will increase funding to Headspace by an estimated 50 per cent next financial year.

 

Prime Minister Scott Morrison made the announcement, suggesting that it “will make a big difference in young people’s lives.”


$51.8 million in extra funding is announced for 2019-2020, with a large portion of that going towards online services. The remaining millions will go towards the existing 107 Headspace centres, with 95 million already supplied to the organisation.
