About SANE Australia

SANE Australia is a national mental health organisation working to make a real difference in the lives of people affected by complex mental health issues through support, research and advocacy.

The SANE Group also consists of the Anne Deveson Research Centre (ADRC) and the Dax Centre.

Founded in 2012, but with a history spanning back to the 1940s.

SANE is a values-led organisation that offers workplace flexibility, a supportive, friendly team, and the opportunity to help Australians affected by complex mental issues live long and fulfilling lives, free from stigma and discrimination.

We are driven by our values of Respect, Innovation, Celebration, Responsibility and Collaboration.
