you don't have to suffer alone or IN silence

We exist to improve the mental  health outcomes in Australia.

OUR PURPOSE

Greg Inglis’ Goanna Academy is the first accredited & Indigenous-owned mental health education provider in Australia. Our mission is to help end the stigma surrounding mental health and improve social capacity to identify, talk about, and manage mental health for all Australians, in particular at risk groups such as Regional Males, Youth, and First Nations communities.

Community

We run clinics in regional towns across Australia to bring our mental health message where it's needed. Using fun and footy, we make it as accessible and informative as possible, and forge long-lasting relationships with the regions we visit.

Working together with NSW Education, our MindEd schools program looks to reduce stigma, open the conversation, and provide students with support and coping tools for mental health related concerns.
