Panel of young people, who will be introduced to the audience at the Forum. service directors, team leaders, clinicians, and consumer and carer advocates. You will receive many useful ideas to improve your services for this target group, and again, places are limited! Comorbidity issues for young people The leading causes of disease burden for nine out of ten young males, and eight out of ten young females, are substance use disorders or mental disorders. Comorbidity dramatically increases the complexities and costs of assessment and care. The disorders are more acute and severe. There are much greater risks of physical illness, delirium, intoxication, overdose and withdrawal, violence, self-harm and inappropriate sexual behaviours. People with more than one mental disorder often have a poorer treatment response and a worse course of illness over time. One disorder may worsen the symptoms and course of the other, or may reduce the effectiveness of treatment. These factors are having a major effect on the style of service provision in Australia and New Zealand, with more presentations to emergency departments and psychiatric admission wards. The pressures on our services to respond are great and the risks higher. On the first day we will focus on: The relationship between drugs and psychosis The effects of the increased use of party drugs and the emerging new patterns of drug availability The latest evidence on treating young people with comorbid mental health and drug and alcohol use The focus the second day will be on effective responses including: Men and suicidality Treating borderline personality disorder Treating substance use problems comorbid with psychosis What are some effective responses and effective treatments? Internet based interventions. The second day includes concurrent workshops to increase your opportunities for in-depth discussion and exchange of experiences.

Mental health services are struggling to find adequate resources and effective treatments. This two-day forum brings together several experts to interactively discuss the latest challenges and responses to these issues. The speakers will focus on the latest research, updates on best practice in service provision, perspectives on how national and local policies and strategies can make a difference, and personal perspectives on comorbidity. The program will be of particular interest to mental health
