The Australian Government Implementation Plan was developed by the Department of Health and Ageing in consultation with all relevant Australian Government agencies and the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Council. It has a strong emphasis on a whole of government approach to addressing the key priorities identified.

This framework provides a five year plan to guide organisations in their work to improve the mental health and social and emotional wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. It was endorsed in December 2004 by the Australian Health Ministers' Advisory Council, and released in October 2005. The framework was developed through extensive public consultation and consists of three parts. The first part contains background information and describes: the guiding principles; understanding social and emotional wellbeing; policy context; foundation documents; and government and community approaches. In the second part the five key strategic directions are discussed and examples of initiatives are provided. Part three focuses on the implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the framework.
