LBI Foundation is dedicated to building the mental health and wellbeing of Australians in need by empowering and growing local community capacity. We are focused on reducing the gap between the science of wellbeing, trauma-informed practice and growing individual/collective capacity and how it is implemented across the community.
What is the ‘Science to Practice’ Group?
The “Science to Practice Group” brings together teachers, managers, practitioners, clinicians and researchers who are interested in supporting the intentional translation of evidence-based science into practice, across diverse groups and settings.
What Support and Advice Do Group Members Provide?
Group members provide advice and support to key LBI personnel in the design of LBI Foundation’s tools, videos, resources and modules that meet a public benevolent need. All tools, videos, resources and modules are either publicly available or accessible to IMPACT Coaches through www.lblearninghub.org.
