Are you feeling lost in the mental health and education systems? You don't need to do this alone.
When a child or young person you care for is facing tough times, the 'system' can feel like a maze. Between health professionals, school meetings, and navigating support, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
Our Finding Your Way workshop in Atherton is different. It’s 100% peer-led, meaning it is delivered by parents, carers, families and kin who have walked in your shoes and navigated similar barriers. 🤝⛰️
What we will explore together:
- Understand how mental health and education 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.
No jargon, no judgment - just real-life understanding and practical paths forward.
