Quirky Kid’s outreach program is intended for schools, community organisations and government agencies seeking coordinated child psychology assessments closer to the families they support. Programs may be considered for regional and remote communities where local access is limited.
Before a program proceeds, we clarify referral questions, the number and age range of children, suitable assessment pathways, family consent, venue and privacy requirements, travel arrangements, timelines, fees and how findings will be communicated. Not every referral or assessment can be completed through outreach, so suitability is confirmed before bookings are accepted.
One current outreach initiative is Quirky Kid’s 2026 partnership with Grand Pacific Health. The program is bringing paediatric developmental and neurodiversity assessment clinics closer to families in Moruya, Batemans Bay, Goulburn and Canberra. Quirky Kid leads the clinical and operational delivery, while Grand Pacific Health supports local implementation through clinical space and professional networks. Read about the Quirky Kid and Grand Pacific Health regional assessment partnership.
Depending on referral needs and current service capacity, an agreed program may include an autism assessment, educational assessment, cognitive assessment or behavioural or ADHD assessment. Contact Quirky Kid to discuss an outreach assessment program.
Who can enquire about an outreach assessment program?
Schools, community organisations, government agencies and other services supporting children may enquire. The organisation needs an authorised contact who can coordinate referrals, logistics and communication with participating families.
What assessments can be delivered through outreach?
The suitable assessment pathway depends on each referral question, the children’s ages, available background information, local conditions and current clinician scope. Not every assessment can be completed in every outreach setting, so the proposed program is reviewed before dates are confirmed.
How are families and organisations kept informed?
Parents or carers receive information about consent, appointments, preparation, feedback and any reporting included in the agreed service. Information is shared with the referring organisation only within the family’s consent and the documented communication arrangements.
The agreed plan records the referral group, proposed assessment pathways, responsibilities, venue and privacy requirements, timing, travel arrangements, fees and included deliverables. This helps the organisation and families understand the service before referrals proceed.
Parents or carers complete the required intake and consent steps and provide relevant background information. With consent, information from educators or other professionals may also be considered when it is relevant to the referral question.
Families receive feedback about the findings and recommendations. Written reports and communication with the referring organisation are provided only when included in the agreed service and supported by consent. Assessment does not guarantee diagnosis, funding, school adjustments or service eligibility.
Enquire about a child psychology outreach program to discuss whether the service may suit your community.
Each outreach program is planned with the referring organisation and participating families so the service fits the community, referral needs and practical requirements.
The organisation contacts Quirky Kid to outline the location, families to be supported, referral questions, preferred timing and the types of psychological assessment being considered.
Quirky Kid and the organisation agree on the proposed service scope, responsibilities, schedule, venue, travel arrangements, consent requirements and costs before referrals proceed.
Parents or carers complete the required intake and consent process and attend an initial consultation. Relevant reports and, with consent, information from educators or other professionals may be gathered before the outreach visit.
Psychologists travel to the community for the agreed program and complete the appointments appropriate to each child’s referral question. This may include child sessions, clinical observation and additional information gathering where relevant.
Families receive an explanation of the findings and practical recommendations. Written reports and communication with the referring organisation are provided according to the agreed service and consent arrangements. Contact Quirky Kid to discuss an outreach program.
