CASSE and Central Australian Aboriginal Congress Aboriginal Corporation (CAACAC) have initiated a joint project  to develop and evaluate a model of best practice for Aboriginal Men’s Sheds in Alice Springs/Central Australia.

ABORIGINAL AUSTRALIAN RELATIONS PROGRAM

At CASSE, we believe it is the responsibility of all Australians to work together, to take responsibility and to walk in each other’s shoes in order to create safe, supportive and healthy communities for every person. This guiding principle underpins our Aboriginal Australian Relations Program.

Our dedicated team of psychological professionals works alongside communities. forming partnerships with organisations at the front line of delivery to create programs that foster a supportive environment and are based on the psychoanalytic principles of listening and sharing in order to rebuild lives and sustain change.

By listening, learning, understanding and collaborating we can develop insight into people’s emotional worlds, about obstacles, violence and problem behaviours, in order to promote healing. We aim to nurture awareness, both self-awareness and a community awareness, in order to change minds and save lives.
