Family Mental Health Support Services

Family Mental Health Support Service activities target prevention and early intervention, with a particular focus on Indigenous families and those from a culturally and linguistically diverse background.

All services funded under Family Mental Health Support Services are aimed at:

  • developing a sound evidence base and practical framework for early and preventative mental health intervention in a community context;
  • empowering and strengthening families through information, education and skills development;
  • developing more effective parenting, relationships and communication strategies within families affected by mental illness;
  • improving the emotional health and wellbeing of family members and carers;
  • increasing community awareness and understanding of mental health issues and the impact of mental illness on families; and
  • improving family functioning and social support for families, carers, children and young people affected by mental illness.
