Culturally diverse and indigenous clients

Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) Clients

At EPPIC we endeavour to provide a service that is culturally sensitive to the 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 can be utilised to assist communication with young people and their families.

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

For more information on working with people with a mental illness from a CALD background please see Victorian Transcultural Psychitry Unit at www.vtpu.org.au.
