The National Rural Health Alliance welcomes two new organisations to its membership – the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) and the Malpa project.
PACFA is a leading national peak body for the counselling and psychotherapy profession. Their mission is to represent the counselling and psychotherapy profession to communities and government, and to develop the evidence base for counselling, psychotherapy and Indigenous Healing Practices for the benefit of Australians’ mental health.
Malpa’s Young Doctors for Life is a unique, culturally derived, grassroots approach to train Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal children to become Young Doctors. This empowers the kids to take control of their health destiny and helps shape the future of their family and community.
