Abstract
<p>Mental health issues for young people, particularly anxiety and depression, are increasing in severity and frequency. Rural and remote health areas generally have limited specialist services to assess and manage young people with mental health problems. The model for service described in this paper is a best practice collaboration between a metropolitan service and a rural health service. It involves placement, training workshops and supervision to provide rural practitioners with increased skills and competence to manage a range of interventions in child and adolescent mental health.</p>
