Tereesa - Australia Case Study (Primary 3-6)

This case study with activities shares Tereesa's story.
Tereesa is a proud Gamilaroi woman. She lives on Darug Country, in Western Sydney, Australia. When she was younger, she found it hard to afford to rent a house and make a home for her four children. With the support of Caritas Australia’s partner, Baabayn Aboriginal Corporation, Tereesa is now thriving and supporting others through the Young Mums and Bubs Group.

Tereesa's story first featured in Project Compassion 2023.
