10am last Saturday of each month. Our Inner Brisbane Carer Support Group offers a supportive environment where people have the opportunity to talk about their feelings, help explore alternative ways of coping, offer support to other group members, or to simply listen and observe. Support groups are also a valuable means of informing carers of Arafmi services and resources that are available to assist their caring role.
Training individuals on how to support themselves and others through emotional distress. Emotional CPR (eCPR) teaches people to support themselves and others through an emotional crisis by utilising three simple steps of connecting, empowering, and revitalising. This is a two-day course that is to be attended in-person. Emotional CPR training is for anyone. It provides people with or without any previous training a set of skills to support another person who is experiencing emotional distress. People who use eCPR report that it becomes a way of life and strengthens their relationships with family, friends, co-workers, self and community members. Emotional CPR is highly recommended training for workers in front-facing roles where they regularly engage with the community. Thursday, 29 June 10:00am - 4:00pm Friday, 30 June 10:00am - 4:00pm
