FRRR - In a Good Place

The Foundation for Rural Regional Renewal - In a Good Place program gives small remote, rural and regional communities across Australia the opportunity to access funds for a broad range of community-driven projects, services, activities or initiatives, which clearly and directly focus on strengthening mental health and wellbeing of vulnerable community members who are at risk of, or are experiencing, mental health issues.

The program aims to support a range of approaches that are preventative or responsive in nature, reduce social isolation by increasing social participation and connectedness, and reduce stigma surrounding mental health by encouraging open discussion and supporting self-help-seeking.

There are now two streams within the program:

1. Community Wellbeing

 For projects focusing on mental health and wellbeing within remote, rural and regional communities

2. Farmers and farming communities 

For projects specifically supporting mental health and wellbeing of farmers and the communities they live in.

In a Good Place offers grants of up to $20,000
