Frontline Practice Leadership Training - Enabling Functions
2025-02-28 12:30 - 15:00 (Australia/Brisbane) | Endeavour Foundation – Support Centre, 33 Corporate Drive, Cannon Hill, Queensland, Australia
Active Support and Frontline Practice Leadership Training
🚀 We are rolling out our second round of Active Support and Frontline Practice Leadership training sessions to all enabling functions teams in January and February 2025.
While this training has already been introduced to our frontline teams, it has been tailored to highlight how enabling functions teams contribute to creating best-practice care for people in our services 💜❤️🧡
Training sessions can be completed in any order and are offered both online via Teams and in-person at Support Centre (in person places are limited, please register early if you wish to attend an in-person session).
What is Active Support?
Active Support is a modern, evidenced-based approach to disability care. It recognises people we support as equal partners in decision making, planning, goal setting, and care monitoring.
It acknowledges people are the experts on their own needs and preferences, and helps us focus on person-centred support that encourages growth.
Enabling Functions play a crucial role in supporting our frontline teams to deliver consistent, safe, and person-centred practices. This training shows how you can embed active support practices into your role and the positive impact this can have on our frontline teams and the people we support.

Apology Anniversary
2025-02-13
13 February each year marks the anniversary of the National Apology to the Stolen Generations, who suffered trauma because of past government policies of forced child removal.

Many of these removals occurred as the result of laws and policies aimed at assimilating the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population into the predominately white community.

Stolen Generations survivors are some of Australia’s most vulnerable people and many have kept their stories and experiences secret for many years, even decades.

Through hearing the resilient stories of Stolen Generations survivors there is now a willingness for Australians to join in on the healing journey. To be part of solutions into the future. This is the spirit of the anniversary.
