The NSW Men's Health Network

Abstract

The Men’s Health Network (MHN) was established in early 2000, following recommendations made in Moving Forward in Men’s Health. It consists of representatives from all area health services in NSW (Table 1). The chief executive officers from all 20 area health services were requested to nominate a men’s health representative. Some areas had an existing representative, while others sought nominations from staff members interested in men’s health issues. The MHN is coordinated through the Men’s Health Information and Resource Centre (MHIRC), which provides advice and support to the MHN.
