Establishment governance
There were four stages to the development of the CMHL, these are groundwork, design and establishment, implementation, and evolution. In the initial phases of development the CMHL’s governance structure incorporated partnership advisory and mental health workforce reference groups. NorthWestern Mental Health is the auspicing organisation for this initiative.
The CMHL also works in collaboration with the Department of Health and Human Services, Victoria (DHHS) and reported to the CMHL DHHS project control group for the establishment phase of the CMHL.
