“The webinar was very informative, speakers were very pleasant and funny.”

"The course took away our guilt of our condition and that we can work and succeed at our own rate."

"Thank you very much for providing me with the opportunity to complete this course, it was so informative and I enjoyed how interactive the activities were. I certainly learnt a lot and will cascade the information to my tutors who work with new migrants and refugees one on one. There are many salient points that can assist people with settlement and coping in their everyday life as they face many challenges. This course was so well structured and it was definitely time well spent."

"Thank you for reinforcing the fact that we are enough and we are worthy of loving and being loved!"

“Loved the online webinars. I would love to see this continue as an option even if face to face training opens up again.”

"It has given me the skills to walk on my feet along in community."

"There was a lot of fun, happy times, laughter and always positive responses from the facilitator and participants."

“Helpful and real presentations, appreciated the lived experience sharing – really helpful.”

"SWSRC Strength Based Approach has reminded me to make sure I don’t forget to value my strength in my personal life and at work. The workshop also confirmed that I can continue to deal with my clients the way I do (listening). Thank you to the facilitator."

“Timely. Good balance of factual and practical information presented in an easy to absorb, recovery focussed style.”

"Recovery College helps in building resilience and learning strategies to help me deal with my mental health issues and give me a better understanding of why I have the thoughts and feelings I do.”

"I've learnt to understand how and why I became the person I have become.
I've learnt not to blame myself for being seduced/preyed upon into a domestic violence marriage. I now recognise the depths of my grief.

It has taken me 60 + years to achieve the above, and it is all due to the courses by SWSRC."
