Oasis Program(s):
Social Connection
Children are too often a casualty
Ethan's mum approached a member of Team Oasis at Homebase to see if there was anything we could suggest to help her son.
We put Ethan on a program at 'Life Skills Queensland' with others from both the civilian and veteran community, including children.
Ethan was connected to a Life Skills Queensland opportunity though the Oasis Connections program. Ethan attended and completed the building task. During the course Ethan connected to another child
who he established a rapport with. Ethan and his new friend have continued to attend courses together and the connection has helped Ethan appreciate he is not the problem.
