Tired of feeling like you’re battling the system instead of being supported by it?

When your child or young person is struggling, you suddenly find yourself juggling a dozen different roles: advocate, researcher, and navigator across health, school, and disability systems. It is exhausting, and it often feels like you’re doing it all alone.

Join us in Milton for our Finding Your Way workshop. This is a 100% peer-led space - no clinicians, just parents, carers, families and kin who have navigated these same hurdles and learned how to make the system work for their child or young person.

WHO THIS WORKSHOP IS FOR:

This Resilience in Reach workshop has been co-designed by, and for parents, carers, families and kin of children and young people with complex mental health

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Understand how mental health systems work and what support is available
Identify common barriers to getting help and how to navigate them
Learn tools and strategies to work well with professionals
Build confidence in sharing your story to ensure your needs are understood
Strengthen advocacy skills for you and your young person
Child-free environment to allow for open sharing.
