Support for children and young people who have a parent or guardian with a mental illness

26 June, 2020

The Commonwealth Department of Health announced additional investment to support children and young people who have a parent or guardian with a mental illness.

With this support, Satellite – in partnership with Emerging Minds – will be delivering an expanded range of peer programs for children and young people living in families where a parent/carer experiences mental illness.
