This procurement will establish an accommodation and recovery-oriented support for children and young people, who are experiencing complex mental health issues often accompanied by substance misuse in collaboration with specialist mental health services provided by CHQHHS.
Children and young people referred to this service will present with a range of severe and/or complex mental health difficulties and/or disorders and will require specialised and skilled service responses. Many young people will also present with peer, family and social functioning problems and behaviours which can exacerbate mental health problems and disorders and contribute to substance misuse.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and young people are significantly over-represented in the child protection system, and this response must be able to meet their needs in a culturally appropriate and inclusive way.
