Counselling and support services are provided at a local health district level and are tailored to the specific needs of the young people and families affected.

The Government has committed $46.8 million over four years (2020-21 to 2023-24) for 100 additional wellbeing nurses to support the health and wellbeing needs of school students and their families living in vulnerable communities. Wellbeing nurses are co-located in identified schools and coordinate appropriate assessment and referral of students and families to available services and programs including counselling services. The first 50 wellbeing nurse sites include 30 locations in regional and rural New South Wales.
