Chad Griffith
Chad Griffith is Chief of Staff to Dan Repacholi MP, Australia’s first Special Envoy for Men’s Health. A proud Wonnarua man from the Hunter Valley, Chad has spent more than thirty years working across all three levels of government. He has served as a local government Councillor, advised state and federal Ministers and a Prime Minister on community development, regional policy, health and infrastructure.
Chad helps lead the Special Envoy’s national listening and engagement program, meeting with stakeholders, services and communities across Australia to understand what works on the ground and translate those insights into practical policy advice for government. His focus is on connection, prevention and partnership, and on building a refreshed national approach to men’s health that is community led, evidence informed and designed to last.
Known for his straight talking, down to earth style, Chad believes good policy starts with a good conversation. He lives in the Hunter, stays close to community life, and brings a steady hand and a big heart to the task of improving men’s health outcomes for the long term.
