Description
Community Support
CBCT offers a Child & Youth Community Support Service to individuals under the age of 20 who experience mental health issues and are living within the community.
Support Workers work alongside service users (and the important people in their lives) to assist them in achieving their goals, including things such as:
- Helping to identify behaviours that cause problems at home or school.
- Managing wellness by understanding the signs and symptoms experienced when becoming unwell or distressed.
- Sharing information about services and resources available.
- Identifying and getting involved with activities that are meaningful.
- Learning new coping skills and strategies to manage feelings, thoughts and behaviours.
- Building on strengths.
- Helping with planning, daily living skills and goals.
- Providing support to access and attend appointments.
