The Federation of Ethnic Communities’ Councils of Australia (FECCA) recently hosted the ‘Clay & Narrative’ workshop in partnership with Embrace Multicultural Mental Health and Mental Health Australia. This event was part of FECCA’s CALD Community Engagement Project (CCEP), designed to promote mental health and build stronger community connections.
The workshop brought together volunteers from the Shingal Community Garden and the STARTTS team to engage in storytelling, craft ceramic tiles, and reflect on their personal journeys. The creative activity aimed to enhance well-being and foster a sense of belonging among participants, allowing them to share experiences and support each other in a positive environment.
In a statement shared on Facebook, FECCA expressed its pride in collaborating with Embrace on this vital project, which focuses on mental health and suicide prevention for individuals from multicultural communities. The workshop highlights the ongoing commitment to addressing mental health issues and promoting resilience within these communities.
