The United Nations checks to see if Government is keeping it's promise. In 2016 the UNCRC Committee welcomed efforts being made to try and improve mental health services, but said that:
- More money needed to be spent on services to ensure that they are available to all children and young people
- A need for more age specific mental health services
- Development of therapeutic community based service for children with mental health needs
What the Family Wellness Project hopes to do on these webpages...
Mental health can feel like a difficult subject to tackle, especially with young children. The Family Wellness Project webpages aim to help you with different aspects of mental health. The aims of the family resources are to keep you informed so you feel more confident about talking to your child about mental health, and to enable you to support your child in managing their emotions and understanding more about their feelings.
