Thank you Tabitha Lean - Foundational provocations for those of us in allied, complimentary and so-called "alternative" health care settings to chew on as well. Engaging with and addressing the ways power, punishment and harm is enacted in our attitudes, language, the doing of therapeutic relationships and response structures is key to creating and delivering whole-person-centred, culturally safer, therapeutically useful, health care grounded in dignity and respect that is ultimately transformative and healing for *all* involved.

Sharing over from LinkedIn post by Tabitha Lean, Prisoner Activist Freelance Story Teller, Writer and Poet : Continuing with the theme of talking about carceral logics, today I’m talking about how those logics play out in health care settings.

Reflecting on our practice and language, helps us move towards an abolitionist future."

Assisting clients and staff to soften stress, experience calm and be more present in their bodies by integrating simple, wholistic health practices into frontline services has the potential to enhance service capacity for people impacted by domestic and family violence, leading to sustained, life-changing outcomes for people in crisis.

Respect and gratitude to Women’s & Girls’ Emergency Centre WAGEC CEO, Nicole Yade for creating the opportunity to present the benefits of sharing ear acupressure skills with both women in refuge and support workers; alongside Brianna Attard and Beth Eager as part of the in-house (w)holistic health and well-being program for women in refuge at the 2024 USyd Law School Conference highlighting impacts and responding to family and domestic violence.

Also, a big shout out for Manda Rochester's presentation of WAGEC's specialist support program for children and young people whose lives have been impacted by homelessness and/or violence.

Acupuncture for Community Inc. is open to community collaborations and health justice partnerships. We are also seeking support with data collection. Please get in touch!
