ENHANCING INDIGENOUS TRAUMA INFORMED WORKFORCE RESPONSES TO SEXUAL VIOLENCE 

Yarning circle training session led by lived-experience Aboriginal facilitators with expertise in family wellbeing, violence prevention and Indigenous trauma recovery practice.

We invite your organisation’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander workforce to connect and participate in our free, face-to-face yarning circle training. This culturally safe session is designed to empower and strengthen Indigenous workforce responses to sexual violence through:

  • Culturally safe, Indigenous trauma-informed training
  • Community-centered approaches to supporting survivors
  • Practical skills to enhance workforce capacity
  • Education as prevention, collectively, we can all make a difference

Facilitated by experienced Aboriginal trainers with extensive sector experience and studies in Aboriginal Family Wellbeing and Violence Prevention and Indigenous Trauma and Recovery Practice, this training acknowledges the ongoing impact of White Australia Policies, including forced child removal and institutional abuse. Our facilitators bring lived experience and a deep understanding of healing pathways that honor cultural practices, lore, and connection. Together, in a supportive, culturally safe space, we will build strength, resilience, and enhance community responses to sexual violence.

We wish to acknowledge the Ngandowal and Minyungbal speaking people of the Bundjalung Country, in particular the Goodjinburra, Tul-gi-gin and Moorung – Moobah clans, as being the traditional owners and custodians of the land and waters within the Tweed Shire boundaries. We also acknowledge and respect the Tweed Aboriginal community’s right to speak for its Country and to care for its traditional Country in accordance with its lores, customs and traditions.
