Supporting Vulnerability through Collaborative Practice Symposium

About the event

Supporting Vulnerability through Collaborative Practice Symposium

As part of the Early Childhood Development Program in conjunction with Anglicare and North Central Victorian Family Service Alliance, a series of 3 Symposiums are planned for North Central Victoria for August 2022.

These Symposiums are free but will require registration.

The Symposium will be open for participation/attendance by all professionals working with children aged 0- 5 and will provide an amazing opportunity to hear from international Guest Speaker Lisa Cherry as well as other key local services supporting vulnerable families.
