AIMH 5th Conference and Annual General Meeting “Can You Help Me?”

Wednesday 27th September 2017, 10.00am – 4.45pm 

Belfast City Hall, Donegall Square, Belfast BT1 5GS

This conference has been organised in collaboration with Belfast Health & Social Care Trust, Belfast City Council and the Public Health Agency.   

The conference is for anyone working in the field of family support, suicide prevention, mental health promotion, working in communities, policy makers, social workers and practitioners.

The focus of this year’s Annual Conference is on exploring and addressing the issues of raising awareness and building understanding of resilience in babies, children, parents and practitioners. During the conference the acclaimed film ‘Resilience’ will be shown and the NSPCC paper ‘Looking after infant mental health in Northern Ireland: our case for change. A summary of research evidence’ will be launched. Speakers will then address current thinking from research and policy and how this impacts on practice and service delivery for families and communities throughout Northern Ireland.

Participants will have the opportunity to discuss and consider the challenges of working with these real life issues in their practice and relevance to early year’s policy/service developments. This will be facilitated through discussions and a Question and Answer session with the panel.
