Do you want to use the #ACMS findings on child maltreatment and mental health to inform your practice? This great Evidence-to-Action note by FACSIAR NSW Department of Communities and Justice tells you how. It outlines the research findings and the practical implications and even includes a checklist for caseworkers working with children in out-of-home care. These research translation pieces are so important.

Thank you for sharing. It is important for mental health professionals to have training in trauma informed care and understanding how trauma can present in children, especially those in care. Too often, there is a lack of understanding and children end up becoming introduced to the juvenile justice system, only further compounding issues.

Great work by NSW Department of Communities and Justice in collaboration with #ACMS to provide this Evidence to Action note. Many thanks Divna Haslam Giovanna Franze Sophie Morson

Excellent research. We already knew this but we need the research to prove it. Matches the Vision 2030 and recent state level 5 yr plans. Is coming together. Pretty strong links also between the Patriarchy plus neo-liberalism and mental distress right across the age span btw.
