Programs and Services Updates Index

The aim of the program listing is to assist information sharing and networking on this topic, principally with other people working with children and families but also with family members and professionals seeking services in their local area.

If your program is not already listed you can register your program by filling in the online form.

Please log your details if your program/activity directly assists the children of parents affected by mental illness and/or their families (e.g. peer support programs for children and/or their parents, respite services for young people or their parents, mental illness education programs for families with children). For programs that impact upon children of parents with a mental illness and their families indirectly (e.g. through workforce development, resource allocation, or organisational development) please consider listing the program in the COPMI Capacity Building "Stories from the Real World" section of the COPMI website.

If you need further clarification on logging your program or you want to update the program already listed here, contact Elizabeth Fudge.
