MSA Disabilities and Carers Week!
Next week is the MSA’s Disabilities and Carers Week! The Disabilities Officers have something on every day Monday to Thursday at Clayton next week and events are open to everyone!
Monday: Social Model 101 with Andrew Day
Get to grips with the basics of Disability critical theory and learn how your Disabilities and Carers department can better make a difference to your life at Clayton.
VENUE: TBA
TIME: 1:00
Tuesday: Foodapalooza!
Not so much foodapalooza as we’re handing out pumpkin soup – nice change from sausages and I think much needed in this frosty weather.
VENUE: South Lawn (near Lemon Scented Lawns)
TIME: 12:00 – 2:00
Wednesday: Disabilities and Employment
Christine Giannakopolous who works with Dandenong Valley Job Support – a FREE to use disability employment support service – will be coming in to talk about how people with disabilities can better navigate the job market and what they can access to assist them in finding and keeping a part time job at university.
VENUE: TBA
TIME: 1:00
Thursday: Mental Health Workshop
MSA Queer officer and mental health nurse in the making Vivian Stewart will be holding a small workshop on common mental health problems experienced at university, how to navigate them, services available and how you can be a better ally for someone with mental health problems.
VENUE: MSA Meeting Room.
TIME: 1:00
