Journal of Public Mental Health focuses on the research, policy and practice that put mental well-being at the heart of the public health agenda. Public mental health can be described as the art, science and politics of creating a mentally healthy society.

It aims to develop the theory underpinning public mental health, and expand our knowledge of best practice in mental health promotion.
