Associate fee scale
Associateship funding allows MHV to provide a range of benefits, including engagements and events. The MHV team is looking forward to providing further benefits this year, including access to more forums and in-person engagements, as well as free webinars and access to free workforce development training.
Please find below the fees for becoming an Associate, during 1 July 2024 to 30 June 2025 financial year based on your mental health budget. If your organisation becomes an Associate after July 1, you will pay a proportional fee.
Mental Health Victoria’s fees operate on a tiered model, implemented under an honesty system, within which we ask each organisation to accurately choose the appropriate tier for them.
This is based on the amount of funding for mental health your organisation allocates per annum. Please advise us of any changes in relation to your mental health budget by contacting mhvic@mhvic.org.au.
