In this episode, Janet sits down with Dr. Teresa (Terry) Bennett to learn about The Family Check-Up program and how a family-centered approach to children’s mental health can lead to better outcomes for kids and their families. Dr. Bennett is a child and adolescent psychiatrist and Associate Professor at McMaster University where she is leading research on The Family Check-Up program and exploring how this evidence-based, family-centered model can be integrated into child and youth mental health services in Canada. Janet and Dr. Bennett discuss how the program works, who it’s for, and how it's being adapted in a Canadian context. They also explore the program’s benefits including improved parenting practices, reduced behavioural challenges in children, and long-term mental health outcomes — all while offering a cost-effective alternative to more intensive interventions.You can learn more about the The Family Check-Up program here.For more information on the work we do at Catch, please visit our website and don’t forget to follow and subscribe to our podcast wherever you listen.
