Open Parachute Mental Health Program
Our Open Parachute Mental Health Program addresses issues of stigma surrounding mental health in young people, it encourages help-seeking, creating a culture of mutual support and respect for any struggles students may face.
The program was developed by Dr Hayley Watson, an adolescent clinical psychologist who has been developing programs globally for the past 15 years.
We offer audio and video-based resources to help parents with practical tools for supporting their child’s wellbeing at all stages of their life.
