Beyond collaboration towards integration: A common approach

Over the past three years, more than 1,800 practitioners and leaders across South-West Sydney have participated in The Common Approach training, which builds a shared, strengths-based language for supporting children, young people, and families. This webinar marks the culmination of ARACY's three-year collaboration with the NSW Government. Together, we’ll explore how this initiative strengthened everyday practice, fostered collaboration across government and community services, and contributed to broader system-change efforts under the Investment Approach for Social Impact Strategy (IAFSIS). Speakers to be announced shortly! What We’ll Cover:

What worked and what we learned from delivering training to over 1,800 professionals across sectors
How The Common Approach is helping organisations embed shared language, cultural safety, and reflective practice in their systems
Opportunities to sustain momentum through Communities of Practice, leadership engagement, and future adaptation across NSW and beyond

This session is for anyone interested in how evidence-informed, strengths-based approaches can create a more coordinated, compassionate, and outcomes-focused system for children and families.
