This webinar will outline practical ways to prioritise the voices of children in OOHC that can support their mental health and wellbeing. It will include a First Nation’s perspective and advice specific for those working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.
This webinar will help you:
- understand the effects of being in care on children’s participation, identity and self-worth
- understand the importance of culture and identity for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in OOHC
- understand how conversation and activities that increase participation, identity and self-worth can boost children’s mental health and wellbeing
- develop strategies to effectively initiate and engage in conversations and activities that enhance children’s participation, identity and self-worth.
This webinar will interest practitioners who work with children in foster care, kinship care and residential care settings, and primary and allied health professionals who work in any service where they may encounter children who live in care.
