The LIFE course (Living Improvements For Everyone) is an adapt ion of the Stanford CDSMP for our aboriginal population. The changes in this course have made the course firstly, more culturally acceptable in as much it deals with some issues such as grief and loss and secondly is presented in language that is more in keeping with Australian ideals and way of life.

Leaders of the course are already trained in the generic version and undergo extra training for this version, and  throughout Australia there are many leaders already trained to run this program - check in your area.

If your organisation has trained leaders or you are a trained leader and would like to find out more about the LIFE course please contact us or  Kate.Warren@unisa.edu.au
