Help improve mental health outcomes for children in Australia

Emerging Minds, along with its delivery partners, are conducting a national workforce survey for family, parent and child mental health and want to hear from professionals in health, social and community services who work with adults who might be parents, families and children.

The survey will help us to understand the current awareness and practice challenges facing professionals in supporting children’s mental health during their everyday practice. The information gathered has the potential to help shape the future workforce development initiatives for many health, welfare, education and community focused sectors to ultimately help children and their families in their social and emotional wellbeing.

This survey is being run by the National Workforce Centre for Child Mental Health (NWC, Emerging Minds) in conjunction with delivery partners – the Parenting Research Centre, Australian Institute of Family Studies, Australian Child and Adolescent Trauma, Loss and Grief Network (Australian National University), and the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.
