Hi, we are the Victorian Branch of OOFRAS. We have been meeting since Dec 2006, after hearing about OOFRAS at WFOT Congress in Sydney.

If you are interested in participating in an interest group in Melbourne please contact us.

We are meeting in a very informal manner, sharing resources and discussing relevant issues.

 

Our first meeting for 2009  is on Tuesday 3rd February  at 7pm at
Nyala African Restaurant,131 Brunswick Street, Fitzroy
Phone: 94199218
We will discuss our goals and plans for 2009 and set the dates for future meetings.
 
We were privileged to have Gail Whitford attend out last meeting.  Gail challenged us to consider opportunities for OTs to raise awareness in the area of refugee health.  Such opportunities might include research, literature searches, and fund raising events. A copy of the CD of our conference presentation could be distributed to all OT Schools with the invitation to purchase further CDs.
       
  For those of you who did not get handouts at the Conference workshop you can download them from here
http://www.footy.com.au/fts/files/oofrasvic_08.pps
Since it is a large file (10Mb) it would be best to save the file when asked and then open it once it has been downloaded.  It can take quite a while to download. Thanks to Natasha’s partner for organising this for us.
 
For any enquiries please phone either Judith on 0425720730 or Natalie on 0425728771
