Acknowledgement of Country
Perinatal Mental Health Australia acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the lands and waters across the country on which we work. We pay our respects to their continuing connection to Country, culture and community, and to Elders past and present. We recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first parents, families and carers of this land, with knowledge systems of pregnancy, birth and raising children passed down for tens of thousands of generations.
Acknowledgement of our LGBTQIA+ Community
Perinatal Mental Health Australia is committed to a perinatal mental health sector that is safe and inclusive for people of all genders, sexualities and family structures. LGBTQIA+ parents and families can face additional barriers to support, and we work with our members to remove them. We are dedicated to ensuring every parent feels seen and respected on their journey into parenthood.
Recognition of Lived Experience
Perinatal Mental Health Australia recognises the lived experience of parents, partners and families as essential expertise in shaping a stronger sector. We are committed to keeping these voices central to the advocacy, policy and practice we drive on behalf of the sector.
