As of the 30 June 2018, NESA has delivered 186 AHMFA workshops across remote Australia with over 2700 remote workers and community members attending. The AMHFA training project is divided into two phases: the first phase involves NESA working very closely with Community Development Program (CDP), Community Night Patrol (CNP), Remote School Attendance Strategy (RSAS) and School Nutrition Program (SNP) providers to equip frontline staff with the skills they need to respond to mental health issues in their communities. The second phase is a community-wide strategy where NESA works on an overarching strategy to engage all stakeholders within the nominated community to access the AMHFA training. Community-wide strategies have been adopted in Groote Eylandt NT, Kowanyama and Yarrabah QLD, APY Lands SA and the Far South Coast NSW.
