Sharing can make the difference Stacey Brown

1

00:00:03,010 –> 00:00:07,250

• I’m a proud Yorta Yorta

Dja Dja Wurrung descendant.

2

00:00:07,250 –> 00:00:10,320

I’ve been working at

Yappera now for 25 years.

3

00:00:10,320 –> 00:00:12,510

So quite a long time.

4

00:00:12,510 –> 00:00:16,140

I think that child information sharing

5

00:00:16,140 –> 00:00:17,549

will definitely impact

6

00:00:17,549 –> 00:00:21,480

and benefit children within out service.

7

00:00:21,480 –> 00:00:25,740

Yappera is a multi functional

Aboriginal children service.

8

00:00:25,740 –> 00:00:28,210

Our strengths come because we are

9

00:00:28,210 –> 00:00:30,350

Aboriginal community controlled.

10

00:00:30,350 –> 00:00:34,010

We’re governed by Aboriginal

members of the community

11

00:00:34,010 –> 00:00:36,750

right from the board of management

12

00:00:36,750 –> 00:00:39,790

down to the management within the service.

13

00:00:39,790 –> 00:00:42,440

I’ve seen a lot of children come in

14

00:00:42,440 –> 00:00:44,910

and there’s particular families that will

15

00:00:44,910 –> 00:00:47,550

always stand out in my memory

16

00:00:47,550 –> 00:00:50,730

and when I reflect on what we’ve done

17

00:00:50,730 –> 00:00:52,465

I really think about

18

00:00:52,465 –> 00:00:56,050

what could have happened

for particular children

19

00:00:56,050 –> 00:00:58,680

and I’ve seen particular cases

20

00:00:58,680 –> 00:01:00,790

where children have come into Yappera

21

00:01:00,790 –> 00:01:03,520

and they’ve slipped through the system,

22

00:01:03,520 –> 00:01:07,390

because we’ve not been able to

effectively share information

23

00:01:07,390 –> 00:01:11,040

or we as educators haven’t

been given the tools

24

00:01:11,040 –> 00:01:13,360

to effectively work with those children.

25

00:01:13,360 –> 00:01:17,050

So we’ve worked in isolation of each other

26

00:01:17,050 –> 00:01:19,880

rather than working together collectively

27

00:01:19,880 –> 00:01:21,630

to support that child.

28

00:01:21,630 –> 00:01:25,100

I strongly believe that,

that investment for services

29

00:01:25,100 –> 00:01:29,080

to be able to collaborate

have the resources they need,

30

00:01:29,080 –> 00:01:31,480

create set savings in the long term

31

00:01:31,480 –> 00:01:36,480

and allows strong

confident resilient adults.

32

00:01:37,203 –> 00:01:39,703
