Case Consultations
Our case consultations are designed to develop professional competency by sharing our practice experience. Case consultations involve working with the practitioner to increase engagement with the young woman, recognise and challenge usual power dynamics in service provision, and ensure young women are better connected to services and resources in order to reduce harm.
