Australian and New Zealand Mental Health Association Inc.

What Australian and New Zealand Mental Health Association Inc. does

The Australian and New Zealand Mental Health Association Inc. (ANZMHA) is a non-government, non-for-profit membership association headquartered in Tugun, Queensland, Australia, serving mental health professionals and workers across Australia and New Zealand. Its core offering is a portfolio of nine annual conferences — including the flagship International Mental Health Conference (operating for 18+ years), Indigenous Wellbeing Conference, Neurodivergence Wellbeing Conference, HER Mind HER Health, Rural Mental Health Conference, STOP Domestic Violence Conference, Frontline Mental Health Conference, Child & Adolescent Mental Health Conference, and AddictionZ — held at venues including JW Marriott Gold Coast, RACV Royal Pines Resort, Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre, Hotel Realm Canberra, and Sofitel Brisbane Central. The association also publishes educational newsletters, a multi-season ANZMHA Podcast, online learning resources, and study bursaries for financially disadvantaged members.

Membership is free and open to anyone, with 26,911 current members, 34,028 social media followers, 3,500+ annual conference attendees, and 550+ partner organizations. Member benefits include a 6-weekly industry newsletter, professional indemnity insurance through Aon, accommodation discounts via Departure Lounge and BizBeds, banking perks through Westpac, mortgage cashback via Xen Wealth, entertainment discounts (Movie World, Wet'n'Wild, Sea World, Topgolf, Australian Outback Spectacular), HealthBank platform access, and a 3-month free coreplus eHealth Plan subscription. The association operates under a Board with Ambassadors and an Advisory Committee, and contributes to Continued Professional Development (CPD) points for its professional members.

The revenue model is event-led: conference registrations, sponsorships, and exhibitor fees appear to be the primary income stream, supplemented by selected member benefit partnerships. Underlying technology is minimal — the association uses WordPress.com for its website and EventsAir.com (PCI-DSS compliant) for conference registration transactions. ANZMHA distributes, but does not build, partner digital health platforms. The organization has no disclosed funding rounds, no subsidiaries, no parent company, and no M&A activity; it functions as an independent, association-governed non-profit.
