A conversation on disasters and wellbeing for children’s recovery

Join Michelle Roberts – psychologist, teacher and child disaster consultant – for a conversation about the impacts of a disaster and community trauma on children and families, and how you can best support recovery.

Michelle will discuss the ongoing psychosocial needs of children following a disaster and how school communities, community groups and families can work together to help prioritise and support children’s needs.

Michelle has decades of experience as an educator and psychologist supporting school communities and is the co-chair of the National Infant and Child Disaster Mental Health Committee.

This event is free, with a light supper provided. Registrations are essential for catering purposes.
