SUMMARY:Windana First Peoples’ Healing Program webinar: Collaborating for more culturally connected alcohol and other drug support
DESCRIPTION:Webinar\nJoin us during National Reconciliation Week 2025 for a free webinar hosted by Windana’s First Peoples’ Healing Program team with DDACL. \nIf you work in Victoria’s Health Care and Social Assistance sectors\, this will be a valuable session for raising awareness of culturally connected services available. \nBased on the land of the Bunurong People\, the First Peoples’ Healing Program supports Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged 16 to 55\, and their immediate families\, with concerns related to alcohol and other drug use. It offers a flexible approach which includes First Peoples’ supports that have been identified within the community\, supporting a person’s journey and connection to self\, Mob and Country. \nIn this webinar\, you’ll learn about the First Peoples’ Healing Program\, including its availability for secondary consultation and as a point of contact for workers seeking to connect clients with Windana. Allison\, Barb and Junelle will guide you through the program’s purpose\, origins\, connection to Closing the Gap\, person-centred support model\, referral pathways and collaboration with other organisations. \nWe are pleased to welcome Dean from DDACL to the webinar. As a key partner of the First Peoples’ Healing Program\, Dean will provide an overview of DDACL’s work in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities\, the programs they offer\, and their collaboration with the First Peoples’ Healing Program. \nAttendees are welcome to ask questions via the webinar chat. You can also email questions in advance to firstpeoples@windana.org.au\, and the team will aim to address them in the presentation. \nThe First Peoples’ Healing Program is supported by funding from the Australian Government under the South Eastern Melbourne PHN. \nArt in cover image is by Hunter Dillon (Instagram: @worimi.by.hunter). \nRegister here:\nhttps://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Iowvr86tTBy3RgcrhM5ZWQ
