Clear Minds

We understand that stress is a part of life. But if you are feeling stressed a lot of the time, it could be a sign that you need some support.

Clear Minds is a program for children and young adults under 18, who are living with or showing early signs of mental health issues. Clear Minds can provide practical and wellbeing support to children, young adults and their families in the Tweed to Grafton area.  With the help of a supportive adult, we work together to find ways to provide assistance.

The Clear Minds program works closely with other local services to provide flexible and responsive assistance.  It provides community education designed to connect children and young adults to their community, nurturing a sense of belonging and support while building friendships, interest and hope.

What kind of support can our Clear Minds program provide?
