Arise Women Support Association (AWSA), in collaboration with the Karen Community and with support from the Moreton Bay Regional Council, proudly hosted a Mental Health and Wellbeing Awareness Workshop to empower and educate our multicultural communities. This vital workshop created a culturally safe and inclusive space where participants explored the importance of mental health, shared personal stories, and learned practical strategies for managing stress, trauma, and emotional wellbeing.

Through interactive activities, group discussions, and community-led conversations, participants gained greater awareness and confidence to support themselves and their families. The event highlighted the strength of cross-cultural partnerships and the value of coming together to break down stigma and promote healing. Together, we continue to build stronger, more connected communities where wellbeing is everyone’s priority.
