Discover the profound impact that Relationships Australia has had on fostering healthy and respectful relationships across the nation. Join us as we sit down with Nick Tebbey, the National Executive Officer, who shares the fascinating journey of this organization from its origins as the Marriage Guidance Council post-WWII to its modern-day role in addressing diverse relationship issues. With over 100 offices and a dedicated team of 2,500 professionals, including social workers, counselors, and psychologists, you'll gain insight into their inclusive and non-religious approach to community support.
Nick takes us through the array of services that Relationships Australia offers, tailored to parents, children, and individuals with disabilities or neurodivergence. From counseling for families dealing with crime and family violence to workshops for improving parenting skills, the organization's commitment to fostering positive relationships is evident.
We delve into the significant research initiatives led by Relationships Australia, particularly the national Relationship Indicators project, which sheds light on key issues like financial stress, mental health, and loneliness affecting Australians. Nick emphasizes the importance of ongoing research in shaping responsive policies and services. We also tackle critical topics such as parent burnout, children's trauma, and the profound impacts of adverse childhood experiences. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of modern relationships and the essential support systems in place to nurture them.
