Our purpose

To improve the mental wellbeing of people in regional Queensland and contribute to the prevention of suicide.

Our vision

By 2025, selectability is the provider of choice for mental wellbeing services and a recognised champion in suicide prevention in regional Queensland.

Diversity and inclusion

We understand that different beliefs about mental illness affect how people find and access support services.

We partner with key community organisations to ensure that our services are accessible, flexible, responsive and inclusive to all groups, including: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander; culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD); LGBTQI+; and those living with a disability. This means regardless of circumstances, individuals receive the right support for their own recovery.

Human Services Quality Standards

National Standard for Mental Health Services

The National Standards for Mental Health Services (the standards) were first introduced in 1996 to assist in the development and implementation of appropriate practices and guide continuous quality improvement in mental health services, which at that time were predominantly provided through state and territory funded specialist clinical mental health services.

They were welcomed by the service sector and were very influential in how services responded to the needs and expectations of consumers and carers. selectabiity is currently going through the accreditation process to meet these standards.
