Resource Hub

The Mental Health Coordinating Council (MHCC) developed the Recovery Oriented Language Guide because language matters in all aspects of life, and continues to be particularly important in the context of mental health and recovery.

MHSA describes the activity and characteristics of Australia’s health care/social care services accessed by people with a mental illness, providing the most recent data available on the national response of the health and welfare system to the mental health care needs of Australians.

The FaPMI program aims to improve outcomes for clients who are parents, their children and their families by reducing the impact of parental mental illness on all family members through timely, coordinated, preventative and supportive action within Adult Mental Health Services (AMHS).

This resource supports clinicians to better understand the Child Information Sharing Scheme (CISS) and how to use it to promote child wellbeing and safety. 

This resource seeks to assist the Child and Family Services sector, and other prescribed sectors who work with children and their families, enhance their understanding of how the MARAM and the Information Sharing Schemes can be applied to improve outcomes for children and their families.

The Centre for Excellence in Child and Family Welfare have developed this MARAM and Information Sharing Resource Hub to support the implementation of the Information Sharing Schemes and MARAM. 

This workbook was developed following a co-design process, in partnership with Victorian Mental Illness Awareness Council (VMIAC) and Tandem, with the purpose of providing self-advocacy information, identifying rights and strategies that support people to speak up for themselves.

The Royal Commission into Victoria's Mental Health System delivered its final report on 3 February 2021 and it was tabled in Parliament by the Victorian Government on 2 March 2021. The work of the Commission has now concluded.

• Victoria’s mental health services annual report 2019-20 is a tool for health services, staff, advocates, carers, consumers and the broader community to better understand the Victorian public mental health system and the services available for people with a mental illness.

The Family Violence Multi-Agency Risk Assessment and Management Framework ensures services are effectively identifying, assessing and managing family violence risk.
