Children & Young people's Mental Health Taskforce

Thankful to be part of the productive and interesting discussions today at #ScotlandPolicy about #CYPmentalhealth

The theme of #WSWD19 "Promoting the importance of human relationships" is of key importance to the work of the Taskforce. We're grateful to our social work colleagues for their commitment to this work and to supporting children, young people & families each day.

Big thank you to @BeatED_Scotland for coming along to our Taskforce meeting today during Eating Disorder Awareness Week.

This morning is the second meeting of the Taskforce “generic” workstream, led by @JackieJbrock and @KelmanKevin and taking place at Queen Anne’s High School in @FifeCouncil

What can you do this #RandomActsOfKindnessDay?

It's #CareDay19 today - the Children and Young People's Mental Health Taskforce are working to ensure that the voices and experiences of care experienced young people and those that support them are heard and reflected in their work. #caretotalk #aboutlove

Speaking at today’s Mental Health Forum, Dame Denise Coia highlights the challenges in young people’s mental health services and how the Taskforce is working to tackle them. #ScotMHforum

4 R’s of trauma informed care @Danjohnso “understanding children & their behaviour as a product of their experiences” great lessons for anyone working with children in health or social care @cisweb #CisAC18

Powerful presentation from @ProfRGWilkinson @cisweb the devastating impact of inequality on society & well-being. “We take external wealth as a measure of internal worth. A nasty process” #CiSAC18
