We know supporting young people, parents and families optimises personal and community resilience, self-determination and nurtures future community leaders.
Changing current practice
Baby Coming You Ready is positively changing perinatal clinical practice through a culturally co-designed digital platform. Aboriginal women and health practitioners collaborated to problem solve and create strengths-based care planning via a comprehensive ‘record’ of each woman’s individual strengths, circumstances and concerns.
Promoting inclusivity
Understanding what Aboriginal parents need to maintain their resilience and social and emotional wellbeing is the basis of developing effective and culturally appropriate programs and services.
Culturally responsive measures
New generation mental health and well-being assessment combines the parent’s self-reflection with therapeutic intervention that supports client-directed follow-up care.
