NSW Government Boosts Mental Health Support For Parents With $10,000 Pledge
The NSW Government has pledged $10,000 to the Gidget Foundation Australia (GFA) to enable the development of an innovative training program and new tools to assist the health workforce with supporting expectant and new parents. GFA is a respected not-for-profit organisation that exists to support the emotional wellbeing of expectant and new parents to ensure they receive timely, appropriate and specialist care. They promote awareness, drive advocacy, educate and deliver services to prevent and treat perinatal mental health issues through early detection and intervention. The donation will be used to develop a bespoke training program and website to host educational content and training modules for specialist perinatal mental health (PMH) training and professional development. The website will enable emerging and experienced practitioners across allied health, nursing, midwifery and medical domains including the rural and remote workforce to gain specialist training in PMH, which will support the 60,000 NSW parents who are diagnosed with PNDA every year.
