A big thank you to Victorian Legal Aid for coming back to Afri-Aus Care and delivering another important and informative workshop with the Mamas.
The workshop was very well received, with the mamas asking thoughtful questions about child protection and the challenges that families can face when navigating these situations. Understanding how to respond and where to seek support can help people make informed and confident decisions.

Workshops like this play an important role in empowering the community with knowledge, confidence and awareness. Helping people understand their rights, navigate support services and make informed decisions for themselves and their families.

A special thank you to Mayoori and Zarita for sharing your expertise and answering questions.
