11.01.2022 "The study found levels of trauma reduced over six months to a year, depending on the child’s age, after they had been through a course of creative and play the...rapies such as painting, drawing and story-telling. The level of trauma was measured through the Trauma Symptoms Checklist. For children aged eight and over, the interventions helped reduce children experiencing the highest level of trauma from 73% to 46% after six months. For children aged under eight, there was little change over six months, but after a year the numbers still experiencing the highest levels of trauma had dropped from 89% to to 40%. The majority of interventions were delivered by social workers (84%) and, for both groups, creative therapies were the most commonly used intervention. The average cost of the intervention per child was 2,300. This compares to an average cost of cases with a range of mental health problems seen by a multidisciplinary Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service of almost 5,000 per child."

06.01.2022 Anglicare Western is proud to announce the launch of their new program SURVIVE TO THRIVE. SURVIVE AND THRIVE Is a new ANGLICARE program in Orange funded by the DSS.... The aim of the program is to strengthen relationships, support families, improve children’s well-being and increase the participation in community life to strengthen family and community functioning, and reduce the trauma and costs of family breakdown. The Program provides a range of services, building parenting and financial management skills, and providing support for better community connections. The Program is predominantly focussed on early intervention, prevention, and support, including assistance for relationship breakdown.

It was a great opportunity to show case the great work we do offering No Interest Loans (NILS) to low income families. Jeremy was pleased to hear that the NILS scheme was so very well supported through Parish Partnerships.

04.01.2022 "Apparently, fear is expected of women." "This fear conditioning begins early. Many studies have shown that physical activity sports, hiking, playing outdoors... is tied to girls’ self-esteem. And yet girls are often warned away from doing anything that involves a hint of risk." "One study focused on, coincidentally, a playground fire pole, is particularly revealing. It showed that parents cautioned their daughters about the dangers of the fire pole significantly more than they did their sons and were much more likely to assist them. But both moms and dads directed their sons to face their fears, with instruction on how to complete the task on their own."

02.01.2022 HATCHES We are so very happy to announce that Aimee who has been a long time Youth Support Worker with Anglicare and more recently Administration, gave birth to a beautiful little boy Jack 2 weeks ago. Both mum and bub are doing really well.... We are still on baby watch with Eliza, one of our case managers. Eliza is due any moment now and we are all just a little bit excited with all the new babies to snuggle with.
