Raising Healthy Minds is a new, free app launched by Minister for Health Greg Hunt at the end of last month with information, ideas and guidance for parents.

Covering over 30 topics at launch and with more being added regularly, the app topics include anxiety, stress, work-life balance, bullying, temperament, grief and loss, gender identity, shyness, depression, bonding and exercise. It has been developed with a diverse panel of 85 parents and 21 child health experts, led by co-chair of the National Children’s Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy, Professor Frank Oberklaid, and Director of the Raising Children Network, Derek McCormack.

The app is designed to give clear and concise help tailored to the needs of each child and adult user, including how parents can take care of themselves and where to go for additional support if required.
