Family Mental Health Support
Service (FMHSS)
The Family Mental Health Support Service (FMHSS) is based in Pukatja and provides a strengths-based, child-centred, and family-focused mental health support service.
Family Mental Health Support Service
The FMHSS program is grounded in community development and has been co-created with local Anangu staff and community members. This approach ensures the service remains culturally responsive and continues to evolve in line with community priorities and strengths.
FMHSS works to improve mental health and wellbeing outcomes for children, young people, and their families by providing early intervention support for those who may be at risk of, or impacted by, mental health challenges. Support is offered through a combination of group programs, short-term assistance, and more intensive long-term engagement where needed.

Community Engagement
Community engagement and capacity building are central to the service. The team delivers regular activities that bring together children, families, and the wider community. In a community such as Pukatja, where identity, wellbeing, and culture are closely connected, cultural and family-based activities play an important role in supporting connection, resilience, and wellbeing.
