Important Tuning in to Kids program update

The University of Melbourne and the Mindful Centre for Training and Research in Developmental Health, which has been home to Tuning in to Kids for more than 20 years, are very proud of our longstanding association with the programs. Over this time, we have built significant capability through the training and support of a network of facilitators and trainers who continue to apply and share these skills within their communities.

Following the expiry of the University’s licence arrangements, the University is winding down its delivery of the Tuning in to Kids suite of programs. Our involvement in the programs will conclude at the end of 2026.

This relates only to the University’s delivery of the programs only. This does not mean that the Tuning in to Kids programs themselves are ending, however any future delivery arrangements will be separate from the University of Melbourne and from Mindful.

We appreciate that you may have many questions and ask for your patience as the remaining arrangements are worked through. To assist, we have developed a list of FAQs related to these changes.
