A unique mental health network for Victorian aboriginal people.
The Victorian Aboriginal Mental Health Network (VAMHN) is a unique mental health programme for Aboriginal people in Australia. The network was set up in 1987. The services and programmes developed include a community consultation service, a psychiatric inpatient unit; and educational, evaluative and research programmes. Utilisation of the network has steadily increased and the demand for both primary and secondary consultations continues to grow.
