An extra $70 million will go to South Australia's mental health services if the Labor government is returned at the March state election.
The funding over the next five years focuses on ensuring people suffering mental illnesses at home, get the care they need with $17.2 million allocated to drug and alcohol outreach programs, SA Premier Jay Weatherill says.
"We know that by acting early on the signs and symptoms of poor mental health, we can prevent people and families from reaching crisis point," Mr Weatherill said.
