Welfare

Mission Statement:

We promote wellbeing by empowering people to build physical, emotional, mental, spiritual and energetic resilience.

Aims:

- To build a sense of safety and belonging by co-creating a harmonious and inclusive community that shares and celebrates each other's growth and development.

- To encourage relationships based on mutual respect, dignity, trust, integrity and honesty.

- To co-create a community that supports each other through crisis and change by meeting needs and supporting personal growth and resilience.

- To develop skill-based programs that build personal resilience.

- To create and strengthen partnerships with the broader community and like-minded organisations, including other My Place communities.

Wellness Model vs Medical Model:

Wellness Model brings HOPE - what can we do to get well, and stay well.

Medical Model brings FEAR - how we diagnose and manage your condition when you get sick.
