How to use the Resources section to
support your work
This section of Reach Out Pro provides you with information and
resources that you can use to support your work with young
people.
Each section contains a brief description of a disorder or issue,
links to further information and relevant research, and a set of
recommended resources that are intended to compliment your work
with young people.
They are under two major headings:
- Resources for Healthcare Professionals- in the
form of links that lead to related websites that can provide vital
information for you and your work. These would especially include
websites related to mental health issues within Australia, but may
also include international research websites
- Resources for Young People- in the form of
factsheets, stories, video and digital stories, that direct
you to the ReachOut.com website. Here you can print out the
information or email to a young person.
The resources recommended in this section have been produced by
ReachOut.com and our development partners -
Brain & Mind Research Institute, Orygen Youth Health and
headspace, Central Coast.
