Cultural “competence” is a complex word as it creates the impression that you can be trained in cultural competence and you will come out culturally competent. It begins with brutal honesty with ourselves! @aburt_b#DA2023

My family are regular donors for @ASRC1, because no other place provides priority services with dignity for refugees and asylum seekers. Please consider if you can be part of saving the ASRC! see below for details #savetheasrc
The @ASRC1 is at risk of having to close its doors in 7 weeks without your help
We’ve been sticking to our budget but cost of living pressures means donations are down 45%
