Stride’s Family and Carers Program aims to ensure that families and carers of people with a mental health concern are adequately supported and have sufficient information and skills to fulfil their caring roles.

We believe every person has their own journey, whether they are someone with a mental health concern or that person’s family, friend or carer. Your journey might include your family or community, or it may be something that is private to you. Many people find the journey challenging, but renewed hope and meaning can enter their lives as a result of it. Whatever journey you wish to take, Stride’s Family and Carer Program will not only support you in identifying what is important to you and your pathway there, but we will walk with you through the ups and downs along the way.

Our Family and Carer Education and Support program includes:

• Individualised sessions – one on one sessions tailored to individual needs
• Information – understanding the Mental Health network, accessing resources and referral to helpful services
• Education & Training – around mental health and resources, plus specialised programs.
• Self-care – tips for strengthening yours and your family’s wellbeing. Taking time out for you through group activities.
• Advocacy – practical assistance dealing with health and welfare services, daily challenges etc.
