Dear Friends, We are pleased to announce that the JA Mentoring Project, BREAKFREE which has been in the pipeline for many years now, is finally going to be officially recognised.
Petersham TAFE NSW has committed a teacher to deliver their "Mentoring in the Community" to the first group of JA mentors. Margaret Goninan was so enthusiastic when she heard about the project that she is starting this Tuesday, October 28th! Margaret has been teaching the course inside prisons, and is eager to change the culture inside because she has seen first hand how damaging it can be. Starting at 5:30 this next Tuesday 27/11/03, Margaret will lead us through six three-hour sessions which will cover all three modules of the TAFE "Mentoring in the Community" course. Success!!! She says to us: "I'll probably go really quickly, as I don't want to bore the old hands. I reckon I can find a way to get to the nuts and bolts to bring the new ones up to speed and go more deeply into the complexities of what you have done so far. I really don't mind how many people you get together - sounds like the more you train, the more you'll have for your project. Looking forward to getting together. " Margaret COME AND JOIN US ON TUESDAY AFTERNOON!! 5.30 start for 3 hours. More about mentoring on our website on page 3 of the new FRAMED magazine now being distributed. We are now preparing for a Graduation Ceremony/party, tentatively scheduled for Friday 5th December. We have approached Peter Garrett to be part of it. He was in the western desert for "Shine the Light" but said he supported our work. COME AND JOIN US ON TUESDAY AFTERNOON!! 5.30 start for 3 hours. Six weeks long course. The more in the stronger we are to make the challenge to change the culture. Justice Action 65 Bellevue St, Glebe, NSW 2037, Australia P.O.
