About HelpingMinds

Reaching more than 10,000 children, youth, adults and families affected by mental illness every year in WA. HelpingMinds provides mental health services and carer support. The not for profit organisation was established nearly 40 years ago as Association of Relatives And Friends of the Mentally Ill (arafmi) in Perth, Western Australia. We have a professional and compassionate team of staff and dedicated volunteers who provide quality, confidential support and services to children, youth, adults and families who are caring for someone with a mental illness or individuals who affected by a mental illness. The majority of our services are free of charge and focus on: advocacy, understanding the mental health system, education, counselling and support, school holiday programs and respite.
