About Us
This site aims to assist organisations in the community and health services sector to:
- provide advice and practical tips on how to engage with men from migrant and refugee backgrounds, including new and expectant fathers, and
- better support these men in their mental health, and as they navigate their roles as partners and parents in Australia, while maintaining their cultural values.
The site is complemented by a portal for individual users which contains information and resources on migrant and refugee men’s mental health (including perinatal mental health), relationships and fatherhood from the time of pregnancy through to the first five years.
The information contained on this site does not replace specialised training in cultural awareness and competence or trauma and/or domestic violence training. Taking training if you or your workplace have not done so already is strongly recommended.
