Who should attend?

This programme is ideal for:

  • Parents and carers from marginalised or culturally diverse communities
  • Community leaders, youth workers, and educators
  • Professionals seeking to enhance cultural competence in family mental health

Why this matters

Mental health support must reflect the lived realities of diverse families. For many, stigma, mistrust, and cultural barriers create silence where support is needed.

This programme bridges that gap—breaking down stigma, opening conversations, and building community resilience.

Learning goals

What you’ll come away with

  1. Explore how culture, identity, and beliefs shape mental health.
  2. Understand the impact of stigma, stereotypes, and systemic barriers.
  3. Gain practical tools for parents and carers to support children’s emotional wellbeing.
  4. Learn strategies for resilience, self-care, and open family conversations.
  5. Discover pathways to further support and resources.
