Online Help guides you to:-
Anyone can use our Online Help service. We encourage family members, carers and friends of people with mental challenges to use our Online Help. Referring organisations can also use it to find help for their clients.
Mental Health Tribunal Representation
The Mental Health Legal Centre (MHLC) provides Mental Health Tribunal hearing representations. We believe that everyone has a right to representation and should be empowered and supported throughout the process.
MHLC offers free legal advice on a range of matters to people experiencing mental health conditions. Our administrative intake line 9629 4422 is open Monday to Friday 9 am – 4:30 pm.
Advance Statement of Preferences
We can help you to prepare an Advance statement of preferences. We work with consumers to understand what treatment is wanted and to ensure that this is expressed clearly in their Advance statement of preferences.
Disability Support Pension (DSP) Clinic
Our legal clinic is here to assist you with your application for the Disability Support Pension (DSP).
Inside Access provides civil legal and other support services to people in Dame Phyllis Frost Centre, Tarrengower Prison and Ravenhall Correctional Centre.
The MHLC and Bolton Clarke’s Homeless Person Project has been very successful in working together to deliver an effective, responsive and high quality Health Justice Project (‘HJP‘). This HJP provides increased access to justice and improved outcomes for a vulnerable cohort of Victorians.
To express your interest in volunteering at the Mental Health Legal Centre, please get in contact with us.
