Overview

Defence life hits different — so should the support. Peer Presented. Now in BRISBANE.

Take two (2) days to reset, reflect and reconnect. This in-person program is designed to support those who support others. Offering space, tools, and shared insight for Defence parents and carers.

What’s included:

  • Lived experience, education & storytelling
  • Hands-on wellbeing activities (e.g. scent experience)
  • Tools to build resilience, emotional intelligence & flexibility

You’ll walk away with:

  • A clearer understanding of Defence systems & supports
  • Practical strategies to care for yourself and your family
  • Communication tools and boundary-setting techniques

This is time for you — to step back, strengthen your wellbeing, and connect with others who truly get it.

All meals and overnight accommodation are included as part of the Immersion Program.

What carers say:

Seeing workshops like this is validating and I’ll never stop hoping and I’ll never stop supporting my son.”

"This course was outstanding. Highly recommend the CPOD Immersion Program. Particularly if you're the parent of a Defence member. The space was safe and non-judgemental."
