Mental Health Legal Centre Inc.

The Mental Health Legal Centre

The Mental Health Legal Centre provides a free and confidential legal service to anyone who has experienced mental illness in Victoria where their legal problem relates to their mental illness.

All centre activities aim to promote the rights of people who experience mental illness. The Centre is a non-profit organisation run by an independent Committee of Management.

We receive the majority of our funding from the Victorian Department of Health and Victoria Legal Aid.

The Mental Health Legal Centre is part of a network of Community Legal Centres located throughout Victoria and Australia. Community Legal Centres provide a three-tiered approach to the law, through casework, community legal education and law reform/policy.

We can assist with telephone advice and referral, direct advocacy - in some cases, education and general inquiries about mental health and the law for consumers in Victoria.
