Helping you to support your child's mental wellbeing

Childhood and adolescence are periods of rapid emotional, social and cognitive development. As a parent or carer, you play a vital role in helping your child or teen navigate these changes and build strong mental health.

Adolescence refers to the developmental stage between childhood and adulthood, usually spanning ages 10 to 24. It’s a time of major change, and your support makes a lasting difference.

Black Dog Institute has developed a series of free resources for parents and carers that offer practical advice, research-informed guidance and downloadable fact sheets to help you support your student's mental health.

Access these resources here.
