About the Department
The Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System’s final report was released in March 2021. It set out a blueprint for a future mental health and wellbeing system in Victoria to be achieved through a series of structural, cultural and clinical reforms to be implemented over ten years. Recommendation of the Final Report is to establish three Infant, Child and Family Health and Wellbeing Hubs, as the first Local Mental Health and Wellbeing Services for infants and children aged 0-11 and their families. One of these first three hubs will be located in Brimbank Melton and the RCH Mental Health Service was chosen to provide the mental health component of the hub. The hubs fully integrate paediatrics, mental health and family services under the one roof so that families can receive the services they need in the one place.
