All are welcome

The experience of a mental health condition affects the individual and those closest to them. If your focus is on someone else’s wellbeing, it’s sometimes easy to forget you could do with a bit of extra support too.

Overview

At Stride, our family and carer mental health support services are designed to help carers and families across the full spectrum of mental health. From giving your child a head start in life, to starting a conversation with an anxious teen, all the way through to supporting individuals living with a psychosocial disability. We are here to help you stride ahead as a team.

Family Mental Health Support services

Family Mental Health Support services provide free, individual outreach support for children and young people aged 0 to 18, with the involvement of families. We provide essential support for families facing mental health challenges. Two of our Stride programs include Take 2 in Cairns and Vibrant Futures in Townsville. Other services are available via Stride Kids and headspace centres.

Family and Carer programs

Stride’s Families and Carer programs are for families and carers of loved ones with a mental health issue. With Family and Carer support you can learn skills that support you on your caring journey, that focus on self-care and the overall mental health and wellbeing for both the carer and loved one. Stride offers Family and Carer programs in Wollongong, Nowra and Hurstville and other services through our centres.
