Join us for our November impact2021 webinar where our presenters and panellists will be discussing our recently launched research, Building Back Better: Mental Health Deep Dive, in partnership with Zurich Financial Services Australia and the Z Zurich Foundation.
The Deep Dive research has found that the current funding models for youth mental health services across Australia have untapped potential in improving issues such as staff burnout, high costs and disrupted service provision to young people in need.
The report recommends a review of funding models to enable mental health practitioners to deliver holistic, long-term services to young people, and to engage in meaningful ways with young people who do not normally seek help.
It also calls for an increased focus on prevention and early intervention – something that is not always supported by many treatment-based funding models.
Presenters and panellists:
- Barbara Jordan: Regional Engagement Manager APAC, Z Zurich Foundation
- Dr Sarah Youngson: General Practitioner, Bridgetown WA / Medical Coordinator & Senior Lecturer, The Rural Clinical School of Western Australia
- Lisette Kaleveld: Researcher and Project Officer, Centre for Social Impact
- Kelly Clark: Research Officer & Lived Experience Lead (CSI UWA), Centre for Social Impact
- Additional panellists to be confirmed
The Mental Health Deep Dive forms part of the Centre for Social Impact's tailored series which is monitoring social issue areas over time, revealing how to create a more impactful, inclusive and sustainable future for all people in Australia.
