Culturally diverse and indigenous clients

Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) Clients

At EPPIC we endeavour to provide a service that is culturally sensitive to our culturally diverse population of clients.  Whilst it can be challenging to conduct a thorough assessment and provide treatment to someone who is from a Non-English Speaking background, interpreters are always utilised to assist communication with culturally diverse young people and their families.

Fact Sheets about psychosis have been translated into a variety of languages. Click here to download Fact Sheets in other languages.
