No Filters Needed: Be Real, Be You

Welcome to the No Filters Needed: Be Real, Be You workshop! This is a FREE event for all young people aged 12 - 17 years old.

Join us at the Tait Duke Community Cottage for an afternoon of authenticity and self-expression, learn valuable coping strategies for anxiety and stress, and have fun by connecting with others.

This workshop will be facilitated by the awesome Janelle Parsons, the founder of Rise & Thrive Co., a Sunshine Coast-based charity.

Janelle is a qualified counsellor and survivor of family violence who combines professional expertise with lived experience to create impactful early intervention programs like No Filters Needed, now implemented across several Queensland schools.
