It’s time to flourish: Co-designed perinatal and early years care, self-determined by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women, Resulting in policy and practice transformation and Exceptional Service (ICARE)
ICARE is a co-designed perinatal and early years care wraparound support project (in partnership with SAMHRI).
This project aims to reduce the proportion of preterm birth by utilising a culturally safe, highly consultative model of care focused on perinatal mental health and social and emotional wellbeing of mothers giving birth to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander babies.
