| About
| The goal of the Research Network on Mental Health and the Law, created in 1988, is to build the empirical foundation for the next generation of mental health laws -- laws that will assure the rights and the safety of individuals and of society. The Network has two overriding mandates: to develop new knowledge about the relationships between mental health and the law, and to turn that understanding into improved tools and criteria for evaluating individuals and making decisions that affect their lives.

- Give alternatives to chronic benzodiazepine use for prescribers’ and consumers’ consideration
- Improve the treatment of anxiety disorders and decrease risks associated with benzodiazepines through education regarding alternatives and risks at initiation
- Recognize resources in current existence for the treatment of anxiety disorders and develop ways to increase resources where needed
- Identify prospects for research that will increase recognition of the risks and benefits of benzodiazepines and further education

| About
| The Marcé Society is multi-disciplinary and provides a forum for exchange of information and ideas between professionals concerned with the welfare of women and their families around the time of childbirth. The formation of the Australasian Branch of the Marcé Society in 1995 was a reflection of the growing commitment and enthusiasm within Australasia towards these issues. Traditionally, the main focus has been on mental illness related to childbearing. However, the interests of Australasian members often encompass broader areas including the maternal-infant relationship, attachment theory, the psycho-biology of pregnancy, antenatal and postnatal education, psycho-social aspects of obstetrics, perinatal bereavement and all aspects of mental health of women and their families during pregnancy and the postnatal period.
