Abstract
It is a great honour to be writing this Editorial for the 'International Journal of Mental Health Nursing'. The appointment of a new editor-in-chief is a significant and momentous event for a journal, and marks both an end and a new beginning. For us, this marks the ending of the tenure of our outgoing Editor-in-Chief, Professor Brenda Happell, who has served the journal with distinction for 10 years. During that time, Brenda helped to position the journal into one of the leading mental health nursing journals in the world. As she steps down, we take this opportunity to acknowledge her outstanding work to date, and to wish her all the very best as she begins a new phase in her career. The appointment of a new editor-in-chief also provides an opportunity for reflection on the development and standing of the journal to date, and a catalyst for considering strategic directions for future development. This journal is the official vehicle for the Australian College of Mental Health Nurses, and has a crucial role to play in contributing to optimal outcomes for persons affected by mental illness and their families in Australia and internationally.
