Orygen and PANDA – warmly invite you to a special online event: the launch of the Supporting Young Parents policy paper.

Grab a cuppa and join us as we launch Supporting Young Parents: addressing perinatal and youth mental health needs, as part of Perinatal Mental Health Week (7-13 November).

Being a new or expecting parent has its challenges, and during this time of transition, many parents can experience mental ill-health. Young parents (under 25) are disproportionately impacted by mental ill-health and mental health risk factors.

Orygen and PANDA, in consultation with young parents and perinatal mental health organisations, have identified a number of opportunities to better support young parents across Australia during the perinatal period.

Speakers:

• Julie Borninkhof, CEO, PANDA – Perinatal Anxiety & Depression Australia
• Nicholas Fava, Policy Analyst, Orygen
• Kristal and Kate, Community Champions, PANDA
