Time for Reform of the Mental Health System in Australia?
Event description
Please join QMWS for our August Dinner Meeting on this important topic.
Keynote speaker at the event is Dr Christel Middeldorp, Professor of Child and Youth Psychiatry and co-chair of the Strategy expert group. She will update us on the brand-new National Children’s Mental Health and Wellbeing strategy. This has become even more important with the added stressors of the Covid pandemic.
Unfortunately, given recent and ongoing COVID-19 spread in Qld, and consistent with advice regarding current COVID-restrictions, we have made the decision to move out August dinner meeting to an online platform.
The event is generously sponsored by Eve Health, providers of excellence in women’s healthcare since 2007.
