The Department of Health published the Youth Mental Health Task Force report in December 2017. The recommendations of the Taskforce have now been incorporated into the service plans of a number of lead agencies, many of which do not fall directly under the aegis of the Department. The actions in the Task Force are broad and we are implementing several actions over the three year implementation period. This year we have made progress in the development of digital technologies such as a new website, a digital crisis textline, and new tele-health interventions. There have been additional training projects introduced such as; MindOut in secondary schools, Longer mental health modules in the SPHE programme, New perinatal training for nurses and midwives, and additional mental health first aid training for professionals working with vulnerable individuals. In addition, a number of other projects are still being considered such as Pathfinder and the development of a child advocacy service.
