Equi Youth is offering a limited number of workshops for school staff from June through to November in Broadmeadow. The four-hour workshop is evidence-based and will provide participants with the tools and strategies to engage a young person and collaboratively develop a plan for responding to distress.

The training is appropriate for both primary and secondary staff. While all staff would benefit, it is most useful for staff in executive, leadership and wellbeing roles who regularly work with highly distressed or emotionally dysregulated young people.

Cost is $150, registration is via Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/o/equi-energy-youth-18134397373

*Free training to help get your Learner’s Licence*

• The training is designed to help participant’s prepare to do the Driver Knowledge Test.
• Morning tea and lunch is provided at Yamuloong
• Participant’s that complete the training are exempt from paying the Driver Knowledge Test Fee, and
• the program pays for their Licence Fee once they have passed the test.
