Our Woven Ways: Uncovering the worries of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander parents
GPs can support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander parents and the parent-child relationship through embedding principles of cultural safety into their practice.
These include demonstrating commitment to building trust and relationships by spending time with people, having an awareness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history and the effects of colonisation, dispossession, practices of child removal and ongoing racism.
Based on a case study and informed by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ways of ‘being, knowing and doing’, this webinar will explore the practice skills required to effectively work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander parents to explore and respond to their concerns about their children’s social and emotional wellbeing.
