Each presentation will conclude with a call for making a specific change and a practical action plan.

MEN ONLY
Men and women may have different approaches to life and  problem solving. A men only program, which is customised for a more male way of thinking and male-specific issues could attract males who are otherwise reluctant to participate.

YOUNG CARERS
Workshops and presentations can be tailored to ‘Young Carers’, typically teen-aged siblings of children or young adults with disabilities.

PEOPLE WITH SPECIAL NEEDS
The course can be constructed as a ‘Life Skills course’ for people with special needs (rather than their carers), which helps them to build their independence and relationships (through buddy groups).

PROFESSIONAL SUPPORT WORKERS
Participating in the program will enable support workers to help their clients develop  positive attitudes and skills. Participating could be part of support workers’ continuous professional development.
