Proactive testing for emotional distress and depression was employed 6 months after a bushfire disaster. Twelve percent of children experienced severe emotional distress 6 months after the bushfire. Substantial mental health morbidity was identified 6 months after a bushfire disaster. The usefulness of post-disaster service provision influenced by proactive screening is discussed and reasons for further research highlighted.
