About Ocean Mind Inc
Mission:
To enrich young people’s mental health, relationships, and potential through surfing.
Ocean Mind is a Not-For-Profit community organisation based on the Surf Coast of Victoria providing therapeutic surfing programs for young people aged 8 - 18 years experiencing mental health challenges,
social isolation, and disabilities.
Ocean Mind works closely with health and community services to identify young people and families who will benefit most from the program. Participants referred to the program are engaged in group
activities that focus on developing surf and social skills, building self-efficacy, resilience, and confidence, developing communication skills, and fostering a sense of purpose and belonging.
