<p>The Prevention Vision confirmed there is a strong case for acting early with good
pre-conception care, fit and healthy parents and taking a ‘whole family’ approach
when responding to problems. Becoming a parent is an important period and opportunity
to offer evidence-based advice and support whilst creating opportunities to support
a child’s very early development. The Prevention Green Paper will set out our thoughts
in more detail.</p><p> </p><p>Through our new workforce of Mental Health Support Teams,
staffed by a new role of Education Mental Health Practitioners, we are providing new
capacity for addressing the needs of children and young people with mild to moderate
mental health issues. The first cohort of trainees started in early 2019 and the first
wave of trailblazer areas will become operational during 2019. The Support Teams will
provide evidence-based interventions, which may include family-based behaviour change
interventions, which can be successfully delivered to help reduce child conduct problems.</p>
