Working Together offers new approaches to Indigenous mental health that acknowledge the importance of cultural identity and resilience as well as the pervasive effects of racism, and the disempowerment of colonisation and assimilationist policies. The book incorporates culturally specific clinical mental health assessment processes and culturally appropriate treatment interventions.
It has proven to be extremely popular with universities, nurses, psychologists, social workers, mental health workers, GP’s, as well as educators & students in all these areas.
The book (& postage within Australia) is being offered free of charge from the webpage: http://www.ichr.uwa.edu.au/kulunga/working_together
Please note that they would be happy to send bulk orders covering student/conference numbers if desirable. Please order at: bookorder@ichr.uwa.edu.au
