The Yarn Up: Employment card pack is a conversation card set that aims to facilitate more meaningful, culturally appropriate conversations around employment support services.
We worked with Aboriginal communities and Disability Employment Service providers across Western Australia to develop this culturally informed conversation card set. This ensures that the preferences and interests of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people with a disability are understood taking into consideration culture and the local context.
“We know that this project is really needed and wanted. There’s an appetite out there for better tools to get job outcomes for people with a disability. Particularly, employment providers have expressed a desire for better outcomes in post-placement and relationship management with employers. As such, our intention with this project is to help employers and employees better understand and communicate the impacts of disability on employment within the context of local Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander culture.”
