The Liptember Foundation is the trusted source and respected leader when it comes to women’s mental health in Australia. Working alongside a community of experts, advocates and allies, they raise and distribute funds towards the most critical women’s mental health outcomes, including women’s mental health programs, initiatives, support services and research.
Since 2010, the Foundation has raised over $15 million, which has been invested in vital mental health outcomes and advocacy across the country with the goal of ensuring that every woman can achieve their optimal mental health.
Most notably, The Liptember Foundation is proud to continue its commitment to conducting the only annual, gender-specific mental health research in Australia, launching its newest update in July 2024. This year’s research is focused on uncovering the reality for women, examining the multi-dimensional aspects of women’s mental health in Australia. It continues to identify gaps and trends for better mental health and explore the mental health issues, triggers, and barriers faced by Australian women.
As the Liptember Foundation continues to expand, this annual research will remain the cornerstone of their approach to sustainable and significant change. Download it for free at liptemberfoundation.org.au
