The Yellow Ribbon Project for Second Chances Australia (YRPA), in collaboration with the Mental Health Commission (MHC), has launched HER Community—a free women’s empowerment program created to support women in remote, regional, and lower socio-economic communities across Western Australia.
HER stands for Hope, Empowerment, and Resourcefulness, which are the heart of every workshop we deliver. Each workshop runs for 1.5 hours and may be held as a breakfast, lunch, or evening gathering depending on the location.
These vibrant community workshops will feature two keynote speakers, a local panel discussing relevant issues, and plenty of opportunities to connect with others. Attendees can also look forward to door prizes, giveaways, and forming new friendships and networks.
Our next workshops are planned for Mirrabooka and Geraldton, with upcoming events later this year in Kalgoorlie, Bunbury, Busselton, and the Pilbara region.
HER Community will deliver 10 workshops across Western Australia, led by a range of facilitators. Each will focus on mental well-being, leadership, life skills, family dynamics, and issues relevant to the local area.
The goal is to tackle challenges like social isolation, trauma, cultural barriers, and limited access to mental health support, while strengthening community connections.
