What You Will Be Doing
The aim of the FaPMI Program is to improve outcomes for clients who are parents, their children and families by reducing the impact of parental mental illness through timely, coordinated and supportive action. The role of the FaPMI Coordinator is to drive service development and family inclusive practice within Peninsula Health Mental Health Service (PHMHS) and across the catchment, and to build the capacity of services to respond effectively to these families where a parent has a mental illness.

The FaPMI Program is coordinated at the state level by The Bouverie Centre, a practice-research centre of La Trobe University.
