Communities play a central role in supporting and protecting good mental health and wellbeing through fostering social inclusion, connectedness and equity, and enabling access to resources and services. This occurs through the process of community engagement, participation and cohesion, as well as through addressing specific factors within a given community that may facilitate or diminish wellbeing. The Regional Mental Health and Wellbeing Hub initiative was established to develop, deliver and evaluate a coordinated and evidence-based approach to strengthening and embedding community awareness, understanding and capacity for improved individual and collective mental health and wellbeing. The Regional Mental Health and Wellbeing Hubs were instigated by the Queensland Mental Health Commission (QMHC) in 2016 as an initiative under the Early Action: Queensland Mental Health Promotion, Prevention and Early Intervention Action Plan 2015-2017 (QMHC, 2015). The Hubs were developed based on the recognition that communities, local networks, schools and workplaces are primary settings for improving mental health and wellbeing and that mental health and wellbeing is more than the absence of mental illness. At the time that this evaluation was undertaken there were three Wellbeing Hubs based in Central Highlands, Logan/Southern Moreton Bay Islands and in Atherton/Cooktown.
