Help us to make psychedelic-assisted psychotherapies accessible for all Australians who need them
Donate to our Patient Support Fund
Our Impact
To date we have committed to funding treatment for 9 patients. The total amount committed at the end of December 2024 is over $85,000 AUD. We have also received further funding requests for 2025. Below you can read more about the selected patients.
Our Patient Support Fund
MMA's Patient Support Fund (PSF) subsidises treatment costs for Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy in Australia to support equitable access. 100% of funds in the PSF are used for this purpose.
We have created it to support equitable access to psychedelic treatment in the short term, while we wait for traditional funding sources (such as private health insurance and medicare) to step in. PSF funding is only available to those who would otherwise be unable access psychedelic-assisted therapies without this financial support.
Please donate in the PSF to make sure psychedelic treatment is available for all who need it, rather than just the wealthy.
Why donate to our Patient Support fund?
It is now estimated that one in five Australians are currently suffering from mental illnesses, with far-reaching consequences for society as a whole. Unfortunately, many people find that conventional medication and therapies either don't work, don't work well enough, are unsustainable, or have substantial side-effects. Psychedelic-assisted therapies have shown remarkable results, even for people who have not found relief from numerous other treatments. To give people with mental illness the possibility of accessing regulated psychedelic therapies, we need your help.
By donating to Mind Medicine Australia, you will be helping us to develop a pathway for the use of psychedelic medicines in Australia. With your help we can give hope to those who need it most.
Who does the PSF support?
To qualify for the PSF, applicants must demonstrate financial hardship, such as reliance on government benefits, low income, and limited financial support. They must also have a diagnosis of treatment-resistant depression or PTSD with prior treatment failures and approval from an Authorised Prescriber psychiatrist to commence treatment. Priority is given to vulnerable groups and recipients must commit to the full treatment protocol.
Our Patient Support Fund
Please donate to support those who cannot afford treatment. Choose between one-time, monthly or annual donations.
Mind Medicine Australia relies on your tax-deductible donations* to create a pathway for the regulatory approval of psychedelic medicines.
With your support, we can enable a better paradigm for mental health treatment.
