Description of the non-profit organization, institution
The Kirikou Health Network is an intersectoral and community network that implements the new mental health policy for children and adolescents in the province of Namur. The network favors a global and integrated approach. It is aimed at children and adolescents who have a mental health problem, as well as their entourage and the many stakeholders involved. For information, visit www.psy0-18.be and www.reseau-sante-kirikou.be.
With this in mind, L’@tribu Mobile was created. This mobile team is multidisciplinary (psychologists, AS, educators, child psychiatrists, etc.). It is made up of people from different sectors, partners of the Kirikou Health Network (AVIQ, Youth Assistance, Mental Health, general hospitals, ONE and INAMI agreements, etc.). Its purpose is to provide a clinical response focused on the beneficiary, their needs and those of their entourage in the young person’s place of residence.
