Recently the Midland Regional Mental Health & Addictions Network held regional planning days for addictions providers of Child & Adolescent plus Adult Mental Health Services Addiction services. The information gathered from this day can be viewed below and will be used in the Midland Regional Strategic Plan 2009 - 2015 to help shape the future of these services.

One of the key objectives identified by both the CAMHS and Adult addictions sector was the need to meet on a regular basis as a sector group to ensure that national guidelines are implemented in a consistent way across the region. In response to this objective the Midland Regional Network will be supporting the establishment of a Midland Regional Addictions Forum (MRADD) which will convene in November for its inaugural meeting. Nominations were sought from across the region through the local LAG (Local Advisory Group) and MAG (Maori Advisory Group).
