Wellbeing resources

Two fantastic resources are available to our families that are accessible to read and cover topics that are very relatable.

The Fathering Project.

https://thefatheringproject.org/about-us/

This organisation aim to inspire and equip fathers and father-figures to positively engage with children in their lives – for the benefit of the kids. The Fathering Project delivers resources, programs and events specific to the engagement style and needs of dads and father-figures. The resources available are extensive and all-encompassing. I recommend receiving the weekly email tips also.

The Djerriwarrh Wellbeing during COVID-19 booklet.

VCAL Youth Worker at Djerriwarrh Community & Education, Amy Abdullah, has created a brilliant and handy booklet of wellbeing tips and advice to help you and your loved ones through COVID-19 and the changes it's brought to our lives.

The booklet covers parenting, diet and exercise, lifestyle habits and mental health, along with much more, including links to helpful websites and resources.
