Smiling Mind is Australia’s leading digital-led, prevention focussed mental health not-for-profit. We’ve been helping minds thrive for over 12 years and are the innovators behind Australia’s most trusted mental wellbeing app.
CommBank and Smiling Mind are supporting business owners, leaders and employees with a new collection in the Smiling Mind App, designed specifically to build mental fitness and support people to thrive at work.
The latest independent evaluation by ACER showed that the Smiling Mind School Program is making a big difference! Nearly all educators expressed satisfaction with the program, and students reported enjoying their experiences. With notable increases in confidence, improvements in school culture, and greater engagement with learning, together we are paving the way for a brighter future for primary school kids.
Half of all adult mental health conditions first emerge before the age of 14, and over the past 15 years, the number of young people experiencing mental ill-health has grown by 50%. Amidst this mental health crisis, Smiling Mind is seeking to create a long-term change in mental health by proactively supporting children to build the skills to thrive, before illness prevails.
Informed by our new Mental Fitness Model, the refreshed Smiling Mind app supports you to develop your own, personalised approach to building a range of wellbeing skills, navigating challenges and meeting your goals. It’s your daily workout for life, in your pocket.
Mental fitness reflects our ability to be at our best each day, navigate challenges, and support a state of mental wellbeing. Just like we train different muscles to build physical fitness, we can practise a range of skills to build mental fitness. The Smiling Mind Mental Fitness Model is made up of five core skillsets which underpin our ability to thrive.
Everything Smiling Mind does is informed by research, testing and evidence. Our psychologists and mental heath experts take time interrogating the literature to ensure our content and programs will have real impact. Check out our sources.
The relationship between individuals and their mental health evolves with each generation. Together, we can create generational change by proactively taking action to ensure that the next generation of Australians have the skills to be mentally healthy and well—along with the adults who support them.
Creating generational change in mental health involves the whole community. Kids are surrounded by adult role models and influences in every area of their lives—at home, in school, and in the wider community. That's why Smiling Mind creates tools and resources to support children and the adults who support them in any setting.
Founded in Australia, our roots have helped us grow as a brand that embraces the beauty, warmth and mateship of our homeland. We’re all about connecting communities and offering a uniquely Australian experience.
Our app, programs and resources offer education and practise from a beginner level through to in-depth skill development. Our content is always led by evidence and backed by research.
Smiling Mind operates for the collective social benefit and all funds earned feed back into our mission—not into pockets. Your support helps us keep mental wellbeing tools in the hands that need them.
