The Positive Influences of Music on Mental Health

“Music is a universal language for everyone, it helps relax people.” Brian Clyne

MHACA recently funded a music project to increase the wellbeing of our participants, acknowledging the positive and powerful influence that music has on peoples mental wellbeing. ‘Kututu’ in Pitjantjatjara means heart, and the foundation for the Kututu Wattleseeds is based in mediation and mindfulness from which music is then created.

MHACA would like to thank Lucia Swift of Sound Wellness for coordinating this project, Pin Rada for production and the MHACA participants for sharing their stories.

MHACA was pleased to be part of the Australian Homelessness Conference 2026, held on 7–8 October at the Darwin Convention Centre.

Under the theme Homelessness: Disrupting the Narrative, the conference brought together more than 600 sector leaders, researchers and practitioners to share knowledge, experiences and approaches to addressing homelessness.

Representatives from MHACA's Housing and Homelessness Service and Living Skills Program attended, with the Living Skills team presenting a session on Valuing Lived Experience in service delivery.

It was a valuable opportunity to share our work, learn from others and strengthen connections across the homelessness sector.
