18 Jun 2025

The State Government is delivering $39.5 million in funding to Ngala, to offer free mental health support to families going through a challenging time following the birth of a child.

The funding will deliver free public access to Ngala's residential parenting service, which offers early mental health intervention and prevention support for the parents and baby in a residential setting.

While in the residential setting, families have access to a range of professionals including child health nurses, midwives, lactation consultants, mothercraft nurses, social workers and psychologists.

The service aims to reduce hospital presentations due to mental health issues for parents and babies.
