The “Cornerstones Project”, a groupwork program for all Muslim women and children living in Victoria that emphasises capacity building of Muslim women and children through personal development and awareness. Women are encouraged to explore gender justice and expectations from motherhood and their impact on women and families, especially children. We work to develop women’s communication and parenting skills, providing information on parenting issues and resources.The final part of this groupwork module works on developing women’s parenting and community leadership capacities, focussing on how both aspects of their lives as women can co-exist. This program is available to Muslim women who are not newly arrived.
