The Connect for Kids program is a 3 day program providing information and support for children who have a family member living with a mental illness. The program provides specific information on depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia.
The Connect for Kids program runs from 9am to 3pm, and is delivered in the school holidays. ARAFMI NSW currently delivers the program within the Northern Sydney/Central Coast area.
The Connect for Kids program contains education sessions, art/craft, games, relaxation, and peer support activities.
This program is based on some material from the SMILES and CHAMPS programs.
