This resource developed by the Murdoch Children's Research Institute and CP Achieve, is a mental health toolkit for parents to help identify early signs of common mental health problems.

Mental health problems are common and often begin in childhood and adolescence, but they can be difficult to recognise. In people with cerebral palsy, typical signs and symptoms of poor mental health may be obscured by physical health concerns.
