ReachOut Parents Content Advisory Group: Expression of Interest
ReachOut Parents is part of ReachOut – Australia’s leading online mental health and wellbeing service for young people. Free and accessible 24/7, we provide parents and carers with practical tips, tools and strategies to help you strengthen your relationship with your teenager so that you can better support them through everyday issues and tough times.
It's really important to us that the content we create is relevant and useful for the parents who use the service. We're after a group of diverse parents, caregivers and family to review content and give us feedback.
Basically, once a month we would send you 3-4 pieces of content (articles, videos or infographics) and you'd check them out and answer a feedback form. You would be on the task force for a 6 month period. You would receive $30 for every content pack completed, and an extra $50 at the end of the 6 month period if you complete at least 80% of the surveys. Plus you'll be contributing to make our service even better for parents just like you.
The only experience you need is being a caregiver of at least one 12-18 year old and especially looking for people who are Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander, speak a language at home other than English, from regional, rural or remote areas or are single parents.
***You don't need to be strictly 'a parent.' We also welcome family and community who are carers to teens.
In terms of privacy, we won't share your responses or personal details with any third parties. You can see our privacy policy here: https://parents.au.reachout.com/privacy-policy
