Changing Minds in the Deaf Community
Changing Minds were delighted to partner with Tall Tree Jared Flitcroft (Ngāti Maniapoto) of JPF Films, to deliver a Deaf Video series - by and for the Deaf community.
This series is designed to raise awareness around mental distress, and the particular challenges faced by the Deaf that other resources have missed.
We were delighted to collaborate on this project with Jared, an award-winning Tāngata Turi filmmaker with a strong focus on accessibility for the Deaf community.
The videos produced embrace Deaf Lived Experience to create culturally appropriate resources that educate, inform and inspire.
Themes range across mental health literacy, safe disclosure, accessing and navigating support services, and how to support each other from a peer perspective.
We're excited to now be able to share these six videos with you:
