Reframing young person violence: Neuroaffirmative practice – online
October 8 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
In Victoria, young person violence has typically been viewed through the lens of intergenerational family violence. Many specialist AVITH practitioners here report that many of the young people they work with are neurodivergent. It is time to consider new ways of conceptualising this issue to bring about changes in language, prevention and response?
We talk with Allison Cox (Berry Street) and Jessica Wright (Australian Childhood Foundation) on cross-disciplinary considerations for this work through a trauma-informed and neuro-affirmative lens.
