Culture is a powerful protective factor for the mental health and social and emotional wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Connecting with culture means connecting with who we are, where we belong, and the stories that shape us. It strengthens identity, fosters resilience, and builds a sense of belonging and purpose 🌿💪🏾

October is Mental Health Month.
For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, mental health is understood as Social and Emotional Wellbeing (SEWB) — a holistic view that includes our connections to Country, culture, family, spirit, and community.
SEWB reflects how we experience the world around us. While trauma can be passed down through generations, so can healing.
Visit https://wellmob.org.au to explore culturally safe resources that support strong minds and strong spirits.

September is Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) Awareness Month, with FASD Awareness Day on 9 September.

FASD is an invisible disability that can affect learning, behaviour, emotional regulation and mental health. Yet, too often it goes undiagnosed or misdiagnosed, leaving children, families and communities without the right support.

For our health and wellbeing workforce, building awareness and understanding of FASD is vital. With the right education, early diagnosis and culturally safe care, we can:
Reduce misdiagnosis

Improve access to supports and services

Strengthen outcomes for our mob living with FASD

The WellMob website has two dedicated workforce development resources to strengthen your understanding of FASD and support best practice in community.

https://wellmob.org.au/key-resources/resources/33861/?title=FASD+Hub+Australia&contenttypeid=1&contentid=33861_1

Together, we can make sure FASD is recognised, understood, and supported in the ways our communities need.

Connection to family, community and culture can play a crucial part in supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who are experiencing suicidality. Evidence suggests yarning about suicide can help people feel heard and not feel so alone, and that doing activities with family, friends on country helps individuals feel connected. These online resources can support families and community members who want to understand how they can support people through tough times.

The two (2) resource sheets for workers highlight best practice resources to use for suicide prevention.

Every life lost to suicide is a tragedy for families, friends, and communities.
Suicide is preventable, and healing is possible.
For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, suicide was virtually unknown until the second half of last century.
Today, it is one of the leading causes of death, with rates rising by 31% between 2018 and 2023 (ABS 2024).
We know the risk factors are complex – shaped by intergenerational trauma, racism, disconnection from culture, and ongoing disadvantage.

But we also know what works:
Culture is a protective factor. Programs that are grounded in identity, culture, and connection to community keep our people strong.
Community-led approaches. When First Nations people design, lead, and evaluate suicide prevention responses, they are safer, more relevant, and more effective.
Strength-based healing. Approaches that draw on lived experience and cultural knowledge foster resilience and belonging.

This year's NAIDOC theme marks 50 years of a movement—a journey of justice, rights, culture, and identity.

It’s a call to empower the next generation to rise strong, guided by the wisdom of Elders and the strength of community.
SEWB connects past, present, and future – it’s about who we are, where we come from, and who walks beside us.

WellMob aligns with this years NAIDOC theme of
🔸 Strength – All the Resources on WellMob are made by mob, for mob to keep us feeling strong and deadly.
🔸 Vision – WellMob is an online website that equips health workers to deliver SEWB-informed, culturally grounded mental health care support.
🔸 Legacy – WellMob has Best practice training tools for embedding SEWB in workforce development, ensuring lasting impact across generations.

Culturally safe care acknowledges that wellbeing is collective, cultural, and grounded in connection to Country, kinship, identity, and spirit.

Healing work must honour the legacy of survival and resistance, while building the strength and resilience of young leaders and clients today.

Happy NAIDOC!
