We are delighted to announce our Listening, learning, leading conference and day of practice workshops on 18 and 19 November to celebrate 20 years of research and collaboration between the ACT’s Health Community Services Directorate and ACU’s Institute of Child Protection Studies.
This event will be an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of this long-time collaboration, to learn about new research that will shape our work in the years to come, and to hear from experienced practitioners about what works to support the lives of children, young people and families. There will also be lots of opportunities to share your experiences and to meet up with fellow practitioners.
A day of keynote addresses, research presentations and a panel discussion from experts across Australia. This day will focus on bringing the research evidence together to inform and support cross sector practice and conversations with children, young people and families.
Choose from a range of 4 workshops that will support knowledge acquisition and skill development in engaging with children, young people and families. These sessions will focus on key practice areas including family violence, neuro-disability in the youth justice space and engaging with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families.
