School Holiday programs are funded by State Government or Australia Government and are subject to confirming funding eligibility including the child’s home address.

Holiday programs using external activities and/or venues may require a specific venue permission/consent form completed to participate in the program.

If your child has not received support from HelpingMinds before (or within the last 6 months) a phone interview will need to take place with the parent/guardian.
A consent form will need to be signed by both parents.
If children require medication throughout the day, they will be required to self-administer this.
External support workers are not allowed at the workshop.
Children require adequate independent coping skills to be able to deal with group situations.
Your child must either have a family member or a friend living with mental health challenge or is at risk of developing mental health challenge themselves.
Most HelpingMinds programs are funded by the Mental Health Commission at no cost to participants for young people and children who have a family member, loved one, or friend with a mental health concern.
Some programs offered in the City of Swan, Kimberley, Midwest, and Gascoyne Regions are funded by the Department of Social Services at no cost to participants. These programs are provided to young people and children residing in the above areas who are at risk of developing a mental health concern.
We offer support for young people with a focus on managing emotions, building resilience, and addressing concerns like anxious thoughts, emotional regulation, relationship complications, sadness and more. We do not offer treatment and management for individuals with diagnosed mental health conditions.
All our workshops have a maximum capacity to ensure our counsellors can provide adequate professional support for all children attending.
To give everyone in the community a fair chance, each child can enroll in a maximum of two workshops.
