A Regional Plan for North Brisbane and Moreton Bay focusing on mental health, suicide prevention and alcohol and other drug treatment services

Thank you for your interest and contribution to Brisbane North and Moreton Bay’s Planning for Wellbeing Regional Mental Health, Suicide Prevention and Alcohol and Other Drug Plan (2018-2024). Under the Queensland Bilateral Agreement requirements, Brisbane North PHN and Metro North Health are now in an active transition phase to design and launch the Joint Comprehensive Plan in July 2025. This means that Planning for Wellbeing is no longer active as we are working towards developing our new plan.

If you are interested to be involved in the next plan, you can visit our My Voice page.
