This project will evaluate a risk reduction program: Butterfly Body Bright, in Victorian primary schools. It aims to determine how effective the program is at reducing risk factors in children and their environments (peers, parents, schools). This project will also identify factors which help/hinder program roll-out and create an action plan to help schools implement these types of programs.

This project is funded by an MRFF Childhood Mental Health Research Grant.
