These very personal perspectives, together with the available population statistics, are the foundation for co-designing services to help improve mental health, drug and alcohol misuse and better manage long term physical conditions. In 2017 SNPHN commissioned the following services specifically for local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Northern Sydney region: • Integrated Team Care (ITC), a program for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with complicated long term physical conditions. The program helps people manage their conditions by assisting with specific medical aids and medical appointments. ITC is commissioned to the Aboriginal Health Service, Northern Sydney Local Health District and The Gaimaragal Group. >> Click here for more • Caber-ra Nanga Engage is a service provided by Relationships Australia and The Gaimaragal Group. It provides support and co-ordination to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people suffering from mental distress. The program aims to improve social, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. >> Click here for more • Odyssey House provides Non-residential rehabilitation for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with drug and alcohol misuse. >> Click here for more As part of the collaborative work between these services, several local groups have emerged and are now meeting regularly, providing both professional and peer support opportunities - see “Coming Up” for future dates.
