(including measures of known benefits which relate to deliverables as well as less tangible benefits) and relevant other groups in the process of establishing the best mechanism for regional planning and co-ordination. • Improved access rates for child and adolescent mental health services. • The development of a service delivery framework for the Northern region will assist both the access and provision of services to service users and their family/whanau. This will result in improved alignment and interface of services so that there is a more effective continuum of care across services. • The development of an infrastructure to support and lead regional child and adolescent mental health sector projects. Benefits for Maori (outline benefits which contribute to Maori Health gains or Maori responsiveness) Coverage (areas, services, systems, etc., affected by project) Coverage exclusions (if required for clarification) Assumptions (if required for clarification) ORGANISATIONAL CONTEXT Alignment to organisations Vision & Mission, Strategic Plan and Business Plan Linkages with other initiatives (linkages and interdependencies critical to project success) The development of a service delivery framework that recognises the continuum of care across services, will improve both the alignment and access to services. This will ensure that there is improved accessibility to Maori. The development of shared care / collaborative approaches to service delivery will ensure that partnerships occur with communities to improve Maori health. The project will work via the Child and Youth work stream with the four regional DHBs and the other identified stakeholders. • Achieving the best outcomes for clients/tangata whai ora and their families/whanau is a key principle. • Any developments or initiatives in the CAMH sector in the Northern Region need to be cognisant of the principles of equity of access and a regionally consistent standard of service, whilst maintaining local autonomy. • A proportion of additional Blueprint funding will be specifically applied to mental health services for the child and youth population. The project is aligned with Northern Regional Mental Health and Addictions Strategic Directions Document 2005-2010. The project will identify and develop linkages with DHB, NGO and other child and youth services i.e. education, CYF, Justice etc that are working to improve Child and Youth Mental Health outcomes. Primary Health linkages will be made through the outcome of the current project been undertaken by the Primary Mental Health workstream. This is a stocktake of primary mental health initiatives that are occurring in both DHBs and PHOs in the Northern Region. Organisational and other constraints Transition to business as usual (issues that need to be considered in transferring the results of this project to the operational services) Alcohol and Other Drug Workstream is currently undertaking a project on reviewing AOD services for Child and Adolescent. The outcomes of this project will be made available to this project. Potential organisational constraints are the availability of project team members to work effectively with the project manager and commitment of statutory agencies to the project goals. The involvement of key players in the service delivery sectors in the project will ensure that the project is relevant to service delivery at all levels and will be sustainable into the future.
