Interested and impressed by @orygen_aus IPS work to focus on supporting young people back to study & work after a #mentalhealth crisis. Well done! This is only more important now, post the Covid-19 pandemic, since the direction and drive for many young people has been disrupted.

Individual placement and support research blogs here: nationalelfservice.net/tag/individual… Also, check out the @CentreforMH work on IPS and Employment centreformentalhealth.org.uk/our-work/38 Thanks to @soniajohnson for highlighting IPS at #MQScienceMeeting
@InstituteMH @JimvanOs1 @JohnBaker_Leeds @SimonMHR Go *wider* says Mike Slade #RonR2019 Research focus is broadening from symptoms & treatments to citizenship & society, eg IPS for work, Recovery Colleges for education (RECOLLECT) & Housing First for home. New studies include social connectedness (CIVIC) & spirituality (MISTIC)
This research continues to be important to considerations about truth telling and restorative measures in #mentalhealth reform. Please read and share with your networks. #justice
"Families and carers are co-opted by the mental health system to provide unpaid support, often causing relational trauma and fracturing familial bonds irreparably" - @bullyresearch and @SimonKatterl in @CroakeyNews bit.ly/3Ja631y

Despite years of good intentions from politicians and bureaucrats, we are not closer to closing the gap in education outcomes for Indigenous children. It's time to listen to Indigenous people when creating policies that affect us. It's time for a Voice. #yes23
