Disclaimer:This framework was developed as part of an academic research project. The classification of listed funders, providers, service types, and service sectors were determined from the perspective of the authors and should be interpreted as such. The framework represents identified services and pathways as of 21 May 2026 and reflects funding structures and service arrangements at the time of development. It is not intended to provide an exhaustive list of veteran-accessible mental health services in Australia. Included funders, providers, and service types were identified from a limited review of the available literature corpus. Information regarding service pathways and relationships was derived from open-access sources available to the authors and may not capture all service relationships. Service availability, funding arrangements, eligibility criteria, and operational structures may change over time. This framework was designed to visually map reported service relationship pathways identified within the source literature to support understanding of the veteran mental health service system. It should not be used in place of official Government frameworks, policies, or service guidance.
