SUMMARY:AIFS and Emerging Minds - How to use neurodivergent-affirming strategies to support child mental health
DESCRIPTION:Presenters: Esther Fidock (The Neuro-Nurture Collective)\, Emilia Zygocki (Small Hands Occupational Therapy)\, Jaisen Mahne (Child and Family Partner) and Jacquie Lee (Emerging Minds) \nRegistration \nThis World Autism Day join our expert panel as they discuss how you can better support the mental health of autistic and ADHDer children (see note). \nIn Australia\, an estimated 3.4% of children (5–14 years) are autistic\, while an estimated 5% have ADHD. These diagnoses fall under the umbrella term ‘neurodivergence’ – brain functioning that differs from the current social and cultural norm i.e. ‘neurotypical’ functioning. \nAlthough autism and ADHD are classified as disorders\, a growing body of research suggests neurodivergence is simply a natural difference in neurocognitive functioning. Children with autism or ADHD have specific strengths that mean they can outperform ‘neurotypical’ children in certain situations. Despite this\, we live in a neurotypical world\, with rules\, systems and environments that aren’t designed for neurodivergent brains. This can be a difficult and disabling experience for many children. \nResearch shows that over three-quarters of autistic children and almost half of ADHDers have at least one mental health condition. Given this\, it is essential we work to understand and accommodate neurodivergent children’s needs and differences. \nThis webinar will explore how you can use neurodivergent-affirming strategies to better support the mental health and wellbeing of autistic and ADHDer children. \nThis webinar will help you: \n\napply a neurodivergent-affirming lens to your work with children and families\nunderstand the impact that neurotypical societies and systems have on neurodivergent children’s mental health\nadapt and apply neurodivergent-affirming practice strategies to suit your context\nbetter support the mental health of autistic and ADHDer children and their families.\n\nThis webinar will be of interest to practitioners who work with autistic and ADHDer children and their families in a broad range of settings including child and adolescent mental health services\, disability services\, non-government organisations\, primary health and schools. It may be especially helpful for early career professionals and those who have limited experience working with neurodivergent clients. \nThis webinar is co-produced by CFCA at the Australian Institute of Family Studies and Emerging Minds in a series focusing on children’s mental health. They are working together as part of the Emerging Minds: National Workforce Centre for Child Mental Health\, which is funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care under the National Support for Child and Youth Mental Health Program. \nNote: This promotional material uses identity-first (e.g. autistic children\, ADHDer children) rather than person-first language (children with ADHD). Person-first language places a person’s identity before their disability and is commonly used in Australia. However\, many autistic and neurodivergent people have voiced strong preferences for identity-first language because they feel that their neurodivergence is a core part of their identity. Individuals have the right to decide how they are described and the terms used in this promotion are not used by all people. \nDate & time: Wednesday 2 April 2025\, 1:00 – 2:00PM (AEDT). Find your time zone. \nRegistration

SUMMARY:Centre for Excellence in Child and Family Welfare - AVITH in Context: A national approach to working with young people using violence in the home
DESCRIPTION:Online \nAcross Australia there are growing numbers of programs and services offering dedicated program support for young people using violence against their parents\, carers and/or siblings. Despite each state and territory operating in slightly different legislative and service delivery contexts\, there are many commonalities in our practice approaches. \nIn this session we speak with professionals from dedicated service programs in South Australia\, Queensland\, and Tasmania who will describe the theory of their program design and what they’ve learned along the way as they’ve been implementing the program. We want to kickstart a national conversation about how we respond to this cohort of young people. \nREGISTER TO ATTEND HERE

SUMMARY:By Sector Connect - Through Children's Eyes: Changing the Family & Domestic Violence Story
DESCRIPTION:Bringing stakeholders together to focus on putting children at the centre to improve the lives of future generations. \nAbout this event \nA groundbreaking national conference that will make life changing impact . \nRegister now and join us for this one day conference\, highlighting the need for Child-Centred approaches for children impacted by family and domestic violence (FDV). \nSector Connect is proud to present this groundbreaking and crucial event for Health Professionals\, Frontline Workers\, and other Stakeholders. This inaugural conference will focus on the importance of early childhood intervention\, as outlined in the Australian Government’s Early Years Strategy 2024-2034 and NSW Health’s ‘First 2000 Days Framework’\, and how to make systemic change. \nFor too long\, children have been invisible\, often considered not affected by FDV\, yet the research indicates a high % of those impacted grow up to be victims or offenders themselves. \nCurrent child protection frameworks have failed the children\, with the evidence showing that early intervention and prevention with the child is the only way to reduce violence. \nWith a range of keynotes\, panel discussions\, case studies and deep dive breakouts\, this conference will detail the importance of trauma-informed and effective programs aimed at children and critically\, initiate discussions on what is needed to address the needs of vulnerable children and make systemic change to break the cycle of violence. \nSpeakers \n\nJelena Dokic (MC)\nDr Mike Freelander MP\, Federal Member for Macarthur (Patron)\nJess Hill\, Journalist\, Author and Educator\nGo to webpage for complete speaker list & program: Https://www.sectorconnect.org.au/tce\n\nWho Should Attend \n\nHealth Professionals\nFrontline workers\nLegal sector\nSocial and case workers\nEducators\nPolicymakers\nNFP service providers\nOther Stakeholders\n*From any Region\, State\, Territory or Country\n\n  \nWhy You Should Attend \n\nLearn about national and international programs that are making change\nBe part of the conversation and solution to make systemic change\nNetwork and collaborate with other sector professionals\n\n  \nTo find out more about the conference\, visit: https://www.sectorconnect.org.au/tce \nGet tickets
