The Child, Youth and Family Engagement program (CYFE) is anearly intervention and prevention support service that assists vulnerable families with children and young people who are at risk of developing, or are affected by mental health issues.
CYFE provides a professional and confidential service to children, young people and their families. While focusing on the strengths of the family and building resilience within the family, children and young people remain the primary focus, ensuring their voices are heard and responded to.
CYFE assists children and young people in developing their own individualised plan.
Practical assistance is provided for the whole family to support children and young people in their mental health and wellbeing goals, including information, referral and education.

We work with children and young people to build skills and confidence to achieve the things they want in their life.
Through one-on-one support, we help create and maintain good relationships with family, friends and people in school or the community, and secure meaningful work or learning.
Peer groups are also available to participate in and can help people focus on building self-esteem and resilience, developing constructive communication skills, or setting goals.
We also support a person’s family so that they can assist their child in their mental health and wellbeing goals, including information, referral and education.
