Our Special Interest Groups (SIG) are communities within ACAMH. People who are part of a SIG have a shared common interest in advancing, and sharing, the knowledge, learning, and research in that area. You do not necessarily have to be an ACAMH Member to be part of a SIG, though we hope that you would show that commitment.
SIGs meet in person, and online to discusses developments in the area, and communicate this through the ACAMH website and social media platforms, together with organising conferences.
We currently have the following SIGs
Early Intervention in Youth Mental Health SIG
Optimising effective service delivery and long-term outcomes in youth mental health in Ireland
Sharing of specialist knowledge, skills and updates on relevant research and service development.
Improving care of children and young people with neurodevelopmental disorders (ADHD, ASD, DCD, DLD etc).
