When children feel safe and truly seen, their world opens up. 🌱 Confidence, curiosity, and growth flourish when kids know they are valued and supported.

Creating a secure, loving environment isn’t just care—it’s the key to helping them thrive. 💛

What if the way we support change could actually increase the likelihood it happens?

Join our Motivating Others for Intentional Change – 3 Hour Online Workshop, designed for partner agency practitioners, caregivers, and professionals who want to move beyond surface-level responses and create meaningful, lasting outcomes.

Grounded in the Stages of Change model and practical motivational strategies, this workshop will build your confidence in understanding where someone is at—and how to respond in ways that truly support growth.

You’ll explore how to:
• Recognise different stages of readiness for change
• Apply intentional, relationship-focused strategies
• Use practical “how” scripts that build motivation and capacity

This is core to the IMPACT approach—responding, not reacting, and working with people to grow real change.

A New Digital Home for IMPACT

IMPACT Online has been integrated into LBI’s main site at www.online.lbi.org.au.

Our focus is on becoming future-ready—bringing together human-centred thinking with smart digital systems so that the IMPACT experience feels seamless, whether you’re learning online or face-to-face.

This direction is shaping our research and development throughout 2026. Over the coming months, you’ll see a range of new IMPACT services, learning activities, and curriculum—designed to be easier to access, more engaging, and better connected through our digital platforms.

We also want to be open: our online experience hasn’t always been as strong as it could be. Improving this is a key priority for us.

As part of this work, we’ve integrated our learning platform into the main LBI website. IMPACT Online (previously online.impactprogram.net) is now located at:

online.lbi.org.au

We encourage you to update your bookmarks.

You’ll also notice a refreshed IMPACT Online logo, reflecting a more forward-facing digital experience.
