Annual Report

“It gives me great pleasure to present MHACA’s 2021 Annual report. The report highlights the many achievements of the organisation throughout 2020/21. We continue our work to lead and support a range of mental health initiatives in the region.

Our primary goal is supporting local communities with comprehensive and quality services and facilities that enhance peoples’ quality of life and enable them to manage and potentially resolve any mental health issues that may impact their lives.”

⚠️ TODAY: AusAlert National Test at 1:30pm NT time

At 1:30 pm NT time today, the AusAlert national test will activate on compatible mobile phones, tablets and smart watches across Australia.

Compatible devices will:
🔊 Play a loud, siren-like alarm for around 10 seconds – even if your device is on silent or Do Not Disturb
📳 Vibrate
📄 Display a message clearly stating that this is only a test

The alarm is designed to get your attention and may be distressing for some people, including those affected by domestic, family and sexual violence, people living with PTSD, and those with sensory sensitivities.

If you or someone you support may be affected, consider:
☑Turning devices off or switching to aeroplane mode before the scheduled test time
☑ Leaving devices off for at least one hour
☑ Talking through a safety plan in advance if needed

You do not need to take any action if you receive the test alert.
