The CareSouth Podcast, is a space where we chat about the issues facing vulnerable children, young people and families in today’s society.
Today we are talking all things Speech Pathology, specifically within a trauma informed practice and we couldn't think of anyone better to answer our questions but our resident Speechy at CareSouth, Tegan. We'll cover when you might need to seek intervention around communication for kids, what a session might look like, and why Tegan loves her job.
If you have been looking to know more about Speech Pathology and if your child needs intervention this is a great place to start!
This week on ‘The CareSouth Podcast’ we bring you a conversation with someone who has worked on the frontline of Domestic Violence (DV) in our community. We sit down with CareSouth caseworker Jen and chat about her experiences working with individuals, young people and families living with DV. We look at the impact 2020 had on vulnerable people, how the language we use around DV matters and how we can create safer places for all.
