Parental Mental Health and Child Welfare Network

The Parental Mental Health and Child Welfare Network is a development Network set up to promote joint working between social care and health staff working with parents with mental health problems or their children.

The Network is led by a steering group of representatives from leading mental health and children's organisations and service users and coordinated by the Social Perspectives Network. Service users and carers will be involved in every aspect of the Network development and evaluation to make sure that the Network's activities are user-focused.

Membership of the Network is free. Join here.
