In 2022, Peet announced a three-year partnership with Black Dog Institute, an independent not-for-profit medical research institute delivering research to help treat, manage and prevent mental illness.

Research has shown that 1 in 5 of Australians will experience symptoms of mental illness in any given year but 3 in 5 of these people won’t seek help. The research and programs that Black Dog Institute delivers are vital in understanding, preventing and treating mental illness in the community.

We are pleased to be committing our support across the following initiatives:

Future Proofing Study

This is a ground-breaking study which aims to prevent depression and anxiety in young people by using smartphones to deliver preventative interventions on a large scale. Peet’s funding provides capacity to deliver follow up face-to-face sessions with participating students to help create a sense of community amongst participants and assist in understanding the development of adolescent mental health.
