Mental health in children and adolescents - Assignment help

Assessment details:

Background

The Government Department of Public Health has asked you to prepare a report on one of two pressing health issues in Australia. This includes a summary of what is known on the issue and its burden, what the risk factors are, what strategies there are and whether these have been effective or ineffective in addressing the problem, and recommendations in the form of a plan of action for further actions to address the problem.

The public health issues (of which you are to select one for your report) are:

• Mental health in children and adolescents
• Food insecurity in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples

In your report, you are to include an action plan (that you have designed) and make recommendations to the National Government about appropriate measures that might be taken by national or state governments and other relevant sectors to address the problem.
