Recovery Boost Program

The Recovery Boost program provides up to $50,000 for mental health projects that encourage early help seeking, support recovery and reduce stigma.

They are looking to fund mental health projects that:

• create greater opportunities for workers to recover at work, or return to work sooner
• broaden the evidence base of what works, so that other workplaces can benefit from what your project learns and accomplishes
• support workers in a workplace in a new 'innovative' way
• encourage individuals to seek early support when they are experiencing mental health issues
• break down mental health stigma and create greater awareness of the importance of mental health at work.

Anyone can apply, as long as you have an ABN or ACN and have a project that benefits NSW workplaces. This includes:

• businesses and industry groups
• not-for-profit and non-government organisations 
• universities and research institutions 
• government agencies and local councils

They are particularly interested in proposals from:

• people with lived experience of workplace mental health recovery
• regional and remote businesses
• aboriginal people and businesses
• culturally and linguistically diverse communities (CALD)
• youth networks and communities
• small and micro businesses
