Service program
Asha is a youth mental health service, which provides mobile outreach support to the region’s most vulnerable young people (aged 12–25), in the Moreton Bay North region including Kilcoy. This is a targeted service that supports vulnerable young people who either have, or are at risk of developing a severe mental illness. Asha applies a youth-appropriate holistic approach in working with young people. It focuses on engagement and relationship building as a means of achieving clinical outcomes, and places equal value on social inclusion, psychosocial and clinical outcomes. The multidisciplinary team employs allied health professionals as well as youth and family workers. Staff provide individualised case management and therapeutic interventions for eligible young people. The target population groups for this service include young people that are difficult to engage, hard to reach, vulnerable and socially disadvantaged.
