- We recognise the important role that spiritual wellbeing plays for Muslim communities in achieving mental wellness – as a result, CMW will focus on creating more culturally-appropriate services and support to ensure this spiritual wellbeing is front-of mind
- It acknowledges the importance of Ummah, or ‘community’ – this is its driving force and will ensure that its services are appropriate to all Muslim communities regardless of background or origin and moves away from just considering the individual to looking at the community that surrounds them
- It is run by Muslims, for Muslims, and will therefore act as a bridge into communities which would otherwise not be open to providers of mental health and wellbeing services



- highlight our culturally responsive professionals
- give the community options to choose appropriate therapists
- facilitate a network of culturally responsive practitioners

Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) Training is a course that teaches people how to recognise signs of mental health problems, provide initial support, and guide someone to professional help. It's like physical first aid but for mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts.
The course is for anyone—no experience needed—and helps reduce stigma, build confidence, and promote early intervention. Different versions exist for adults, youth, workplaces, and specific communities.
Please contact us admin@cmw.org.au if you would like to organise training for your organisation or community group

It was nothing short of EPIC! Our school workshop at East Preston Islamic College. Our facilitator Husna had the privilege of guiding parents through the art of raising successful kids , which was incredibly well received.
Its not easy raising children, especially when today’s parents are juggling their own challenges with focus, screen time, and daily routines.
The struggle is real but we are in this together!! Learning, growing, and building stronger families one conversation at a time.
