QuickBooks Online 2024, estimate form, get ready and some coffee because we're diving into it with Intuit's QuickBooks Online. Here we are online in our browser searching for QuickBooks Online Test Drive looking for the result that has Intuit.com and the URL selecting the United States version of the software and verifying that we're not a robot. Let's open up our major financial statement reports like we do every time. Reports on the left hand side, we're in our favorites, right clicking on the balance sheet to open link in new tab, we're going to right click on the profit and loss to open the link in a new tab as well. Let's look at those links up top, looking at the middle tab, closing the hamburger.  Like our CPA six pack shirts, a must have for any pool or beach time, mixing money with muscle, always sure to attract attention. Even if you're not a CPA you need this shirt so you can like pull in that iconic CPA six pack stomach muscle vibe man. You know that CPA six pack everyone envisions in their mind when they think CPA. As a CPA I actually and unusually don't have tremendous abs, however I was blessed with a whole lot of belly hair, allowing me to sculpt the hair into a nice CPA six pack like shape which is highly attractive. Maybe this shirt will help you generate some belly hair too and if it does make sure to let me know, maybe I'll try wearing it on my head. And yes I know six pack isn't spelled right but three letters is more efficient than four so I trimmed it down a bit okay, it's an improvement.

Here's our balance sheet tab and to the right close in the hamburger there's our profit and loss going back to the first tab. This is the setup process we do every time data input on the first tab looking at the results of that data input on the financial statements in the tabs to the right. We'll hit the drop down here we've been looking at the customer cycle remembering the customer cycle will differ depending on how complex our industry is the easiest one being like gig work or something where we wait till something clears the bank using bank feeds to record the income possibly with a deposit form. If we are working at a cash register still a cash based system but then we would want to record the sales as they happen typically with a sales receipt form then record the deposit and then match that deposit with the bank feeds or bank reconciliation to what happens on the bank side. And if we're in a cruel system we typically have an invoice and then receive the payment and then we make the deposit and match the deposit to the bank feeds or with the bank reconciliation. This time we want to take a look at the estimate form. Now the estimate form is unusual in that it's a form that doesn't actually record a transaction to the financial statements it's an internal document similar to what we saw with the purchase order on the vendors side of things. Still an important form for our bookkeeping process but not one that's going to be contributing to the creation of the financial statements. Let's first look at a flow chart to get an idea of how it will work how it will fit in this is a desktop flow chart but we're just looking at the flow of the forms which is in essence the same for any kind of accounting system. So we have our flow on the customer cycle revenue cycle or sales cycle whatever you want to call it in the full service accounting system we're usually going to be invoicing the client increasing the accounts receivable other side then going to revenue and then receiving the payment and then making the deposit. You can see that the estimate is something that could happen before we create the invoice so you might be first doing an estimate and then creating the invoice. Usually when we think of an estimate form we usually think about it like a job cost type of system where you might be in a construction company or something like that where you actually like bid for a job or make an estimate for the job if you're making something that will be unique each job being unique different from every other job then you might try to create the estimate to build how much it might cost and see if that will be approved by the person that you're working with the customer and if it is then move it over and create the invoice possibly creating it from directly the estimate that would be the general process but you can also use estimate forms anytime that a customer might be asking how much something might cost because if they're buying multiple things for example then instead of creating an invoice or a sales receipt to see how much something might cost you might pull out the good old estimate form and it's looks like an invoice in essence but it's not going to actually record anything and you might use it in that fashion as well so given that let's go on over and open one up we're going to hit the plus button and we'll go down to the estimate form let's imagine once again that customer number one look it looks like an invoice basically right so customer number one we're going to say customer one again tab and okay save it now the estimate is another form that will typically be emailing oftentimes one in which the external user will be viewing it so you might want to customize your estimate form to put your logo on it and that kind of stuff as well as opposed to some other forms where we often simply use them for internal reporting purposes primarily we have this pending tab down here so notice the estimate general process for the estimate would be it's pending it's been accepted or it's been rejected right so we could say it's pending meaning we sent it out possibly but we haven't heard back from them to see if they're going to go through with it or not if they say yay i'm going through with it then we can move it to accept it if they say nay they don't want to do it then we can reject it and then it might be simply closed uh meaning we've uh closed the uh estimate so we'll see those where those groupings will be formatting where's that you might ask then what's the purpose of having these different fields if it's not impacting the financial statements where does that come into play it'll happen within the customer center so we'll see that shortly so i'm going to close that out and then uh the estimate date let's make it on oh one oh one two four and expiration date we could add one if we so choose let's make it on the 30th and tags and then we've got the things that we're going to be adding now i'm going to use the the the items that have already been set up this time because what we're looking at here is a company file that has a job cost kind of system so let's say they they we need a pump for whatever job that they're making an actual job can be quite complex for like a construction job right so we might have a pump we might have the rock fountains that we have to add and we want like two of those and then we might have like they we need lighting in the thing that we're making here so we'll say like five lightings and let's say that we'll have to add a cost for them they're like five dollars and then we're going to say that we add the rocks the services gardening we'll put in there uh that we're going to be putting in place two of two gardenings for a hundred dollars or something so you can see the point being that the estimate could actually be quite long if you're in a construction type of job and you're trying to use the estimate form to get an idea of what the end product will be which is an art in and of itself right because you're you're trying to see how much something will ultimately cost before you before you engage in the ways you might do that i won't get into this in detail because it's a special area in and of itself but you might set up all your items for the cost of the items right and then you might also set up another item to mark up whatever your your uh profit will be that would be a very like a transparent way to see the estimate you could say hey look this is how much these items cost me and i'm marking it up and i'll show the markup here so that you can see how much i'm charging above and beyond what i expect the cost could be or you might set up each of your items here at a cost that includes your markup for example this is how much i'm charging you know including the markup but the estimate isn't going to be possibly perfect in terms of what the actual cost could be because you because a large job will have over and under estimates that you'll have to basically deal with so then the question will be once you do the job are you going to just build them based on the estimate that you gave them no matter if it goes over or under budget or are you going to use that estimate and adjust it to what actually happened over time when the actual job processes you also have issues with longer jobs with job cost system with revenue recognition issues because if the job is going to be expanding over a long period of time uh then the question is should i be recognizing revenue as i'm completing the job even before it's complete because normally what happens is we don't recognize revenue until we do what we're supposed to do give the inventory or provide the service that's when we recognize revenue but if i'm doing a construction job that takes a year or more then the question comes up well should i be recording some revenue as i go on like a percentage of completion basis so we might there's topics those are topics in and of themselves i won't go into them in a lot of detail uh here but i just want to kind of point out that at this time so let's say normally we would send well let's see what we can do here we can cancel it we can clear it we can print or preview it let's go ahead and do that let's preview the form this is what it would look like if we're going to email it out in pdf format closing that out then we can make it reoccurring if it's a reoccurring transaction we can customize it so that we can make our own style for the estimate because it is an external form we can copy it delete it or audit history notice that this form might be one that we copy possibly if we have complex estimates and we want to have a similar job that we're going to do and it's a really long estimate we might copy over one estimate and then make variations for it for a different job for example we could save it we can save and send which is typically what we would do if we're going to email it to somebody we can save a new or save and close in our case we're going to save and close it so then nothing's been recorded to the financial statements up top we're going to track this instead internally on the sales tab uh the customer center in essence we could look at it at the all sales which has all the transactions in it and we can look for the estimate transaction I think they have a a short do they have a actually it's within here so let's go in here and look at the estimates and so there is our estimate right here that we put in play if I hit the drop down make uh we can mark it as accepted we can view edit we can duplicate we can share estimate link print update status uh and delete the status being that it is pending at this point in time which we can think of as we sent it out but they haven't responded to it uh as of yet we can also go to the estimates tab here which is probably more likely where you're going to go if you're going to just review all the estimates that are outstanding once again you have your estimate here you could sort by estimate you could sort by date you've got your filter options up here looking at all estimates pending declined uh accepted closed if I look at the pending estimates there's our pending estimate right there if I go to my customer I can see it within the customers as well I have this little shortcut over here for the filter tab and that'll give me just a customer with that estimate within it if I go into that customer there is uh our estimate for that customer all right so then we could change the status of it from pending let's do that over here on the estimates tab and then if I if I hit the drop down one way you can do it is we can go to the status down here update status and then you've got our status option so it's going from pending if they accepted it so they're going to get back to us they accepted it we go great they've accepted it and then we can have by and then uh the date I'm just going to keep it as accepted here now it's dropped out of our pending filter and it's now in the accepted filter so now it's in uh the accepted and then after it's been accepted we could change the status again changing the status this way you could also change the status by going into the actual form editing the form and you have your status dropped down here and the next thing would be that it would be generally closed once you finished the job enough in essence then it would be closed and that's when you would generally make the invoice possibly if you're not on a percentage of completion you might make the invoice at the end so then it would be closed if I go back into my status it's been converted to uh closed now now if they didn't accept the project then of course if they come back and say we reject it then we're going to say rejected and that's fine we might have a lot that are rejected because we might do a lot of estimates and you know some happen and some don't we're not going to delete the estimate but we don't want the estimate to be hanging around there so that it could be pulled in to create an invoice so we can say that we that we uh we declined it and so now it's under declined so it's no longer it's already it's still there so if they come back and have a question about it we can see it but we're not going to basically use it to create an invoice with it if I go into my customer status and I look at the customer information you could see it's clearly xed out here as not something that we're following through on within that particular client instead of it just kind of hanging around there and I was thinking should we be making an invoice basically from it let's go back to the estimates again and let's change it back before we do however note that all the other ones here say that they have been converted that means that we created an invoice from the estimate which we have not yet done with this one so let's go back here I'm going to go back to the edit tab and I'm going to bring it back and say it is in the accepted status so we're going to imagine that it has been accepted save and close and then I'm going to change my filter up top to look at the accepted one there it is and now you can see here I have the button to say convert to an invoice so this will create an invoice from the estimate or I can select the drop down or I'm sorry edit it and in the invoice that is now in accepted status I have the create invoice button up top or copy to a purchase order so if we need to if we if we for example are selling something like inventory and we are saying what the inventory is and then we have to turn around and purchase it from a vendor that's why you might copy it to a purchase order in our case we're going to create a invoice from it so I'm going to create an invoice from it now it's building the invoice and looks exactly like the estimate but now it has an invoice you can see it's linked to the estimate and once again this is an external document so you we would want possibly to customize the form to make it look proper for external purposes for a client to take a look at and then if we had any changes to it we could still make the changes possibly here as the invoice has been created from the estimate so what's the invoice going to do now obviously it's going to record now like any other invoice increasing the accounts receivable 88580 it's going to be then increasing the sales by the 835 the difference of the sales tax go into sales tax payable cost of goods sold going up which is an expense type of account and then we know that the inventory is going down by the amount items that are given by these items that have been set up here which we can't see on the actual invoice let's save it and close it and now you can see here that the that the estimate is now been moved automatically now right to the closed status because we've converted it to an invoice


All right, welcome back. It's still the breakfast on PLOS TV Africa. We are moving on to the next conversation and on Thursday, May 12th, is the International Day for Nurses and indeed there's been a week-long activity to actually mark these particular professionals and to identify where their struggles get right and, of course, invest in that particular profession. We have a guest joining us to look at the essence of all of this. We have for a lot of Mottosho. He is the General Secretary Association of General Private Nursing Practitioners. Good morning to you, Dr. Mottosho. Thanks for joining us on the breakfast on PLOS TV Africa. Thank you very much, Ben. Yeah, thank you. So let's talk about the nurses. Indeed, on Thursday is the International Day for your professionals. Why has this particular day been put forward to ensure that, you know, nurses are remembered, really? Thank you very much, Joseph, for that question. Yes, today I'm going to do that. It actually marks the beginning of this year. And it's a time for us to remember the Morda, but not only Morda, but Morda gave it. So in the history of Morda, the nurses, the largest workforce in the area to do the system, they might be set aside to mark the gradual end of the year. All right, Dr. Mottosho, during the COVID-19 pandemic, in the wake of it all in the year 2020, you know, health care practitioners were the ones in the front burner. And a lot of things came to the fore, the issues of their right hazard allowance to send them, how far they usually go, you know, to just ensure that patients are well taken care of. But let's talk about nurses generally now in Nigeria. How would you really see a nurses' right have been protected? Is it done in the right way, really? Yes, thank you. Thank you very much. The Morda is a benefit to Morda. We'll talk about it later. Now, somebody has the right to do the duty of education. You have the right to live, the right to do the duty of education, the right to do the duty of education. Now, what's going to be the duty of the rights of Morda? Now, you may do the obligation of education. As far as I'm concerned, do you like to become better or less educated? To live, to be educated, to be educated, to be educated, not being educated upon. How is that? The issue of life, when it comes to life, when it comes to being given your life, what you are trying to do, by living or what you are doing or who you are, what you are doing, in the health care industry has been compromised. That until now has not been in the health care industry, like now, they have not been ready to give them money. That they have nothing to do with what they are expected to be given. Okay, so let's pro-further and ask Eve there, because of course the nursing week talks about protection of the right of nurses and the question here is, do you think that their policies put in place by government to protect the right of nurses? That's in order to ensure that the conventional nursing they have not had the technique, the policy that has been passed by the people of nursing adequately has front line in the national industry in Nigeria. So, but how do we then, that's also another issue. Now, I remember in 2021, to be precise, you had the medical association, never saying that they had lost over 4,000 nurses in cross river state and this brain drain continues. So, what do you think can be done and what's been done to cop all of this because it would definitely render the sector useless. Exactly. Now, why talk about brain drain? Now, how do we now take, that is the solution of our one, policy should be put in place at the end of the day, when they go out, when they go out, when they go out to go out to go out look for, in Nigeria, is it the strategy for them to come in at the same time? When you come in, that is conducive. When you, when this is open, it should always be at the same time, that's when they have to take me for practice. They will skip, but in this situation, we are, you know, in the U.S. community, in the country that I see, they are not going to be able to come in and do the work anyway. They are not going to be able to do them. They are just going to be compensated. I'm not going to be able to do that to the people. So, please stay. All right, Dr. Montageau, let's look at some of other issues in this particular profession. You will agree with me that nursing is a noble one. Some people might even say it is a calling and not just a profession, but let's understand something about them, how it's really done, about nurses and the profession in Nigeria. I know we have registered nurses, we have a nursing or nursing aid or nurses aid. We have mental nurses who work with mental homes and all of that, and those who also work in home spaces. But how far can a nurse really go in terms of unpractice, because we've gotten to see an extent where nurses are actually playing pharmacists and doctors as well. The health care system is a thing that we need to do in the U.S. Unless, for the first time in the U.S., the nurse doesn't have his own role to play. The doctor has his own. The pharmacist has his own. The lab scientist has his own. Now, which one, as a player in the health care industry, has a conventional need of nursing, particularly that one. Now, we lost the anxiety by the reason of the story, but the book, the book what you see, why do you see it. So, he's entitled and all of the education to trust me according to what we are doing. And now, we have gone and gone to the U.S. to see what the profession is. Now, not just that, it's gone to the U.S. The U.S. profession has a dentistry. They are mostly in various facilities. Even in the profession of emergency, in terms of technology, in those circumstances. And every other thing, and I said the other day, we've been not going to join the state of the U.S. in 15 years. We are now in the U.S., and then all these are doing, they are doing, they are improving their quality. We are improving their quality. So, nursing is a nice way to trust them, to think of what we are doing. All right. We must say a very big thank you to you, Dr. Folao Montosho, general secretary of your group. And we wish you all the best as you celebrated the nurse's weekend. Of course, all the right and all the issues that we've talked about, we wish we trust that and they'll be looked into by the government and, of course, all relevant stakeholders. Once again, thank you for your time this morning. Is it a pleasure to be with you? All right. Well, we must say a very big thank you to all of you who have sat back to watch the show. My name is Justin. I've got to make the breakfast return to game tomorrow. Well, that's the size of the conversation. It's all right to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, and to subscribe to YouTube channel. It's at Plus TV Africa and Plus TV Africa Lifestyle. I am Messi Popo. Have a fantastic Monday.


The MHPM would like to begin by acknowledging the traditional custodians of the unceded lands, seas and waterways across Australia upon which our webinar presenters and participants are located. We wish to pay respect to elders past and present and we acknowledge the sovereignty of all First Nations people. Hi, I'm Damien Wicks and welcome to the 900 plus people who are registered for this webinar and the people who are watching us live today. Today's webinar focuses on a new initiative, which is a unique partnership between Black Rainbow and the Mental Health Professionals Network. And this is the first in a series of four webinars and we'll talk about the second one at the end of today. I'm produced in this partnership and it explores how practitioners can better support the mental health and social and emotional well-being needs of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTIQA plus SB community. Today's webinar in particular focuses on the impact of COVID-19 on the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community and how to strengthen the well-being and mental health literacy of services and increase the access to these. Next slide, please. So I'm your facilitator. I'm Professor Damien Wicks at Flinders University and I'm also a psychotherapist who works in private practice. And today's speaker is the founder of Black Rainbow, Damien Bonson. Damien, could you tell us a little bit about Queer Robbery and how it came about, please? Yeah, hi. Hello, everybody. First of all, I'd like to acknowledge the traditional owners and the lands that we all are meeting. And I'm going from Larrakeer Country up here in the Northern Territory. Queer Robbery came about as a creative way of coming up with giving information in regards to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander queer folk and the work that we are doing. It's become creative in terms of that, you know, in a post-COVID world or post-lockdown world, the embracing of using videoconferencing. And it was a really, really unique way for us to reach those that can't attend conferences or even when we don't get opportunities as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander queer folk to present at conferences. This is a way of greater reach. And the number of registrations I think is really testament to how effective this vehicle is. Thanks, Damien. Next slide, please. So as we've already mentioned, the aims of this webinar are to discuss the impact of COVID-19 on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTIQA and sister girls and brother boy community and how to strengthen the mental health and social and emotional wellbeing, literacy of services and to increase access. You've got our learning outcomes here. I think they're going to be really well covered in the material that Damien's going to present to you now. And then we're going to have quite an extensive time for questions, some of which you have all kindly sent into us already. And we've had a great time looking at those together and also those that come in live during the session. Next slide, please. And I'll hand it over to Damien to start talking through this project that he conducted and the outcomes that he has found. Yes. The report for us was an opportunity. For those that are familiar with Black Rainbow, we operate on donations. We're an unwavered volunteer organisation that I founded. And so the opportunity for us, we saw COVID as an opportunity to collect some data. There is no data in terms of First Nations LGBTIQA plus people. I began speaking publicly about that in around 2016. So this was an opportunity to draw on our donations and engage with one of our community partners, which is Macquarie University, to get some baseline data. There's a sense of pride for us at Black Rainbow for producing this report. And that this study has been led by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Rainbow folk. And it's been written by us as well. In the process we've had to go through to achieve this, which is to use donations to be unwavered volunteers. It speaks to the structural barriers that exist for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander queer folk when it comes to preventing suicide within our mob. Thank you all so much for registering and attending today. We're really glad that there is an interest here in what we have to say and what the results tell us. Next slide, please. You will receive an access to the report just in a couple of days. We just had some technical issues on my hand to make sure that it was all ready. So the slides that you'll see today are snapshots from the report. And they draw on the information from the report that is more pertinent to the mental health workforce and also those that are attending today. Within the report there will be a lot more information. But this is what we'll talk about today or speak to. It's more specific to the mental health profession. Now all three of these infographics are of particular concern. Because we have no baseline data to make a comparison, we are comfortable to assume that these are elevated experiences given that we've all experienced COVID and COVID lockdown at a national level but even at a global level and the impact that that's had. Nonetheless, these are alarming that half up to close to half of the participants experience suicidal thoughts is particularly distressing. It is worrisome because there hasn't been a substantive investment in the Aboriginal child transgender, you know, LGBQTI plus sister girl brother boy suicide prevention. And therefore we actually don't know what should look like in terms of intervention or prevention for our community. So that half of the respondents indicated, you know, having these suicidal thoughts really should alarm people or pique their interest to to mobilize to to at least champion that that work needs to be done. Similarly with the high numbers of the negative impacts on mental health, we don't know what mental health interventions look like for our community during these moments of distress, let alone if these these moments are prolonged and go on for, you know, plus or three months and turn into a diagnosis. What then does the support look like? Next slide please. It is heartening that in the light of what the previous slide has told us that a significant number did access support from within their family and friends network, that they were actively aware of who the guess the lack of better word the stress that they are in. They were mindful of that and very conscious of that and they had someone to go to is also a strength and I think that speaks to to the I guess the the close knitness of the average entire China community, especially at a family level. Next slide please. That the connections were strengthened for a large part of the respondents is also really positive and we just hope that there's longevity in that that it's not just in in the light of you know, such a catastrophe or crisis that is covered. But at the same time with the quarter saying that they felt less connected. This is also worrisome. We don't have any baseline data to even know how connected they were initially but that you know just over a quarter express that they felt less less connected is a cause of concern in terms of what supports are going to be out there for those people who are feeling isolated. When I first started Black Rainbow on my iPhone 4 back in 2013, it was with the premise that an average on charge trying to get online and see themselves reflected positively and I created those two accounts on Twitter and on Facebook because there was nothing in suicide prevention for our community and to say that you know, six years later is the first time they're going to have any baseline data. There's a lot of work that still needs to be done and particularly the speed in which it needs to be done. What I would really like to sort of comment on and maybe ask you to comment on is you know some of our viewers today may wonder about the sample size that you've got but I'd really like to remind people that you know Indigenous people are a bit over 3% of the population of those maybe 4% maybe more are queer. So I think it's we need to keep those figures in mind when we think about the size of this sample. I think the size of the sample is probably likely quite representative. Is there anything that you would like to say about that? Look absolutely, we're really pleased with the numbers that we got for this survey. It was the first of its kind at a national level as well and so to have these large numbers it's the data is really rich. I was saving this to the end of the presentation that for those that are watching and see opportunities of how we can implement some of these findings or assist with implementation science of some of these findings. I'm not across everything and how to do everything and you know Black Rambler were always seeking support from outside of our networks or even with new networks but there is quite a bit of data in here that can one mobilise I mean prevention efforts and prevention efforts but also around research and we'd love to continue to partner with new organisations and institutions to continue during this research. This is number nine is it? Yeah. So I think the the connections were really strengthened. Sorry we're strengthened it's really positive. Again we are nine or ten sorry. We're on the correct slide that you should be on. Yeah no sorry I just realised I was repeating myself. Yeah so the use of this particular slide here it's the use of social media which I think can direct us to where more specifically tells us where help can be provided or that interventions can be created. I know from our experience at Black Rainbow we weren't active on Instagram until early 2020 so just before the pandemic hit and lockdown hit we hadn't been count but at the time we only had about 220 followers. As of this morning we have over 16,400 followers. So in that first year the rise of numbers by Instagram was actually quite astronomical. We have healthy numbers across Facebook and Twitter. I think Twitter is just under 9,000 and Facebook is hovering around I think 13 or 14,000 but Instagram for us is quite a there's opportunities here in terms of interventions and support and we've been using our presence on social media more as a community notice board for sharing information as well as providing a place where people Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander queer folk can come to you to see themselves in the work reflected positively but we're fully yet to harness the reach that we have in terms of the support that is needed so there's plenty of opportunities ahead. I do think Damien that perhaps some of I wondered just off the top of my head if perhaps some of the increased reach on social media has both about people needing that support but also in terms of visibility. I know people like Courtney Act has been a very strong advocate for the work of Black Rainbow. I wonder if you know how that has helped your outreach and uptake. Oh absolutely our accomplices in our work that we doing have been very valuable in increasing our reach not just within our community but also to the broader community outside of ours as well about who we were you know the both times that Courtney has been on Dancing with the Stars we've been her charity of choice so that's given us millions and the reach from that from from mainstream TV is being quite substantial and it's really supported us also around being able to have conversations because of Courtney's audience and who is in that audience who has now come over into ours and reach down and say look what can we do which has been really helpful. Next slide please and this here you know this slide in particular in light of the levels of suicidality and mental health that were on one of the previous slides these help-seeking levels are of considerable concern. The only way I can see that this will increase is through an investment in Aboriginal Torres Strait Islander, LGBQTI plus SP, suicide prevention, mental health and social emotional being. As I've said previously there isn't a substantive investment in our health and well-being at this moment in time and you know to increase these levels that we need to ensure there needs to be an investment one we need to understand what are actually help-seeking behaviors of our community and what services do we need. At the moment there is there's some preliminary data that identifies the need which we knew anecdotally and I certainly did I created a workshop about six years ago to increase the cultural competency of suicide prevention services and now more broad into social services so that they were a lot more I guess first-nation queer friendly so that to increase access for for our community but this as I've said before there's there's a considerable amount of work that still needs to be done. This report is the first national study that even has in the baseline data that even mentions around the suicide ideation or suicidal thoughts so there's still quite a bit of work to be done and you know with suicide being such an important discussion to have but also you know the the I think the latest data that came out that Aboriginal suicides went up during the pandemic others went down in 2020 the rates of suicide are much higher than 2019 and it's been a steady climb. Next slide please. For those that were accessing mental support this data provides a foundation of where where and what can be can be strengthened you know these are still quite considerable low numbers but they are I guess encouraging and it's looking at those particular areas of support which are you know across Telethon and video conferencing the online support and also during the crisis text or the crisis hotline is that our mob are actually using these services so how can we strengthen these services and this here is going to take around looking at the help seeking traits of how and why and what attracts people to these services but also what's not attracting you know the other two-thirds of our population who are who are identifying that they are in distress so again there's quite a bit of work that can be done but it is it does give us some insight into of a starting point of where we can go where we can be we can begin I mean you mentioned on the previous slide you know the low numbers of people accessing services and you said what needs to change but what are some of the barriers that are happening at the moment is it about there aren't queer specific First Nations services is it the First Nations services aren't inclusive of queer people what do you think it is about this meaning that low uptake looking I mean there could be more universal you know response I can give around you know stigma those types of things but in terms of services what we don't see is we don't see services our enough services you know I think there's a handful that are doing this but we don't see services that from the outside looking in are presenting themselves to the First Nations you know rainbow community saying come through our front door access our service you are welcome here and it's something really as simple as that these services are essential services it's getting people through the front door and if that front door doesn't look inviting people are going to access it next slide yep thank you so with them with the one-third of respondents who did access professional support nearly half of them reported obstacles and for those who went looking which wasn't captured about a quarter of said that the service that they needed did not exist or was not available to them and I think this also goes to your question you just asked Damien is that however I think that we need to know what the service what the service is that people need it's the first instance and that did not exist and was not available and is it racism at mainstream services that is stopping our mold from accessing those services is it the presence of the phobias among Aboriginal and Tarsha Honda services that that isn't stopping our mold from accessing those services so if when those things exist either in actual or they're perceived then we have two significant service providers in this country that our mob aren't accessing and that's when that that's when I think that becomes that the service that I need isn't available I don't believe that we need to start setting up First Nations queer services around the country I think this is about increasing the cultural competency of both First Nations organizations so the Aboriginal medical services to be better equipped and engaging with you know the LGBTI original community but also with mainstream services and this includes LGBTI services as well around being better at and better equipped around increasing their position and strengthening their their reach and also their attractiveness to to First Nations rainbow mob. Next slide please and so these here are just a selection of the findings that were applicable to today's webinar for myself four and five are of particular significance you know as I said earlier you know Aboriginal and Tarsha Honda you know lesbian gay bisexual transgender queer intersex you know non-binary um sister girl and brother boy so we are considerably absent from from suicide prevention efforts particularly at a federal level there are some states and territories that are mobile at localizing but when you look at federal funding and the overarching plans so the fit mental health plan the implementation of all that funding there's nothing for our community and it goes back to without data there is no policy without policy there is no funding so it is my hope that even this preliminary data that we've uncovered here through our research that this we can use to champion to change policy to affect policy to create a new policy so that when it comes to funding that there is money allocated for those who want to do this work or within the existing funding that there is KPIs there that people need to report back against to say yes we are actually investing in to preventing the suicide of Aboriginal and Tarsha Honda LGBTQ2o plus people and one of the things too that I highly recommend if you're in these positions of leadership within suicide prevention is to include Aboriginal and Tarsha Honda LGBTQ2o people within that within those leadership discussions and and as someone who has a first-hand lived experience of you know I've had depression anxiety about first-hand lived experience of suicidality first-hand lived experience of bereavement we need to have people at the table that bring more than just lived experience we need people with expertise we need people with qualification we need people that have done First Nations queer work we just can't have someone there just because they identify as First Nations or across the rainbow spectrum before anything again it when you receive this report and this is kind of a call for help I guess or for assistance is that again there's going to be data within this and findings within this report that I don't have the capacity to really to look at and say okay this is what needs to happen next so once you've received this report and you can see opportunities for implementation for some of these findings or to assist with implementation sites please reach out to us again there's quite a bit of research that needs to happen suicide and mental health are just one component there is as quite a raft of other areas of research that needs to be done something that's not in this presentation but is in the report that just over a third of respondents identified as having a disability which I think has significant implications for the NDIS there was at least half of the respondents did not feel safe in the spaces that they were in during during lockdown so that that's considerable in terms of we need to look at why that is we know that out of research out of Western Australia that came out a couple years ago that First Nation LGBTQGIFoC over there didn't necessarily always feel safe within the Aboriginal spaces or in queer spaces so there is this isolating effect that happens so please do reach out there's some quite a bit of work to be done and many hands make light work and I think something so important that comes from this research is that you know COVID's not over so we know that First Nations people experience compounding effects of racism or colonisation so that's sort of a baseline and that you know it relates to suicidality and then for First Nations queer folk we have compounding phobias as you mentioned before and then COVID adds to that as well so I think we need to be mindful that this was a snapshot at a point in time as you said but that point of time hasn't ended and so those elevated rates on top of the existing compounding things is likely to be continuing you know absolutely and the fact that this is the the only Aboriginal study like on the impact on the Aboriginal Toronto community I think we're we're already headed we're headed that curve you know we've started this conversation so there is this the COVID elements that this price provides foundation for in terms of you know the ongoing pandemic and then long COVID but then there's the the service provider stuff you know as well in terms of how to strengthening services or the need for services to to strengthen their outward facing their look but also around you know we need to collect this information that nearly 50 50 percent of respondents again as you said it's a lot it's a quite a decent sample size express express suicidality during that or suicidal thoughts during that period is really quite quite concerning and also that there was elevated periods of mental health distress as well and the two honestly always related they can operate in you know individually suicide you know being behaving mental health being more of a diagnosis and experience they're not necessarily related but sometimes they can be which just makes that heightens the risk already particularly for first nations queer folk where we know that racism is a significant risk for suicide but also the phobias that we experience as lesbian gay bisexual trans queer intersex non-binary you know sister girl and brother boys thanks to me so as everyone can see on the slide here uh questions can now be asked using the speech bubble icon um we've also got some questions that have already come in and we're going to start by having looking at those uh so and and also I've asked to to remind you that you can join the chat by clicking the two speaker box icon on the top part of your screen you can also ask the question by clicking on the speaker box icon on the bottom right of your screen so there's lots of ways to engage with us now so a question that we got asked before the webinar we had a whole lot of lots of questions coming before the webinar so we can't obviously get to all of them and we won't be able to get to all the ones that are coming in live now but we've chosen a few that Dan would really like to respond to so one of them is living and working in remote Aboriginal communities has been very challenging to assist Aboriginal Torres Strait Islander LGBTQ young adults and children they often get bullied a lot and are scared to stand out for themselves as a professional how can we support them and their family to live their life in freedom cheers Damien I've worked predominantly of my career well they've been the better part of the last decade in the northern half of Australia for the first half of my work in suicide prevention was working across the Kimberley within those more remote community spaces and what I know from when you when you live in those towns and work in those towns that during your date when you're working hours you're in a particular role but also outside of that you're part of the community so there's a couple of things that I would suggest you could do there's visibility of Koreanness within your workplace or First Nations you know LGBTQTI visibility Black Rambo to see behind me we're going to have some merchandise promotional stuff like these posters available later this year simple things like wearing badges I'm also rocking our wear a purple shirt wear a purple day shirt that we've got available for the next two days so these are these are the I guess the symbolisms for that can our mob can connect to and say well that place there feels like a safe space for me because it's presenting in a way that is welcoming but outside of your role you can still do the same things and in so that you have a community space in that environment they can see themselves reflected positively as well and but also what I found is that when you do this it also promotes conversation between those you don't know much about this topic and then that just grows the visibility the visibility and support at a community level thanks Damian we just had a comment come in live from Mary and she very kindly said that she hadn't heard of Black Rambo before this webinar today and she's definitely going to reach out and engage and in her work in inpatient units at a hospital so it's wonderful to hear people are already learning today just by attending the webinar so another question that we had came in earlier was I'd love some advice on supporting a young brother boy who lives off country and who is not well connected with mob looking for advice on seeking permission from their community to self-identify as a brother boy as per cultural protocols yeah firstly for those that aren't familiar with the term brother boy or sister girl these are these are culturally or socially acceptable terms for some of the indigenous trans community then they're not applicable to all trans folk some some trans folk are actually non-binary and so they don't identify as sister girl or brother boy or male or female so these are excuse me these are self-selected names and so a brother boy isn't as could be an indigenous trans male now in to answer your question I'm not aware of any cultural protocol that does exist in communities but I would encourage that person to be who they are and but also in doing so providing that kind of wraparound support while they're doing so you don't want to just push somebody out into the you know out into the space without providing that support so be very mindful that you're also going to be providing support for them we know that at the point of realization whether it's you know your sexuality or gender identity that is one of the highest places to be in terms of suicide risk this just adds an extra bit of layer in terms of acceptance around that and when I say that that I'm not aware of any cultural protocol it's not to say that nothing exists it's just that I'm not aware of it and something that a few of us have been doing for quite a few years is how was even trans defined and expressed you know pre-contact so if you go back you know 100 sorry you know 10, 20, 30,000 years how was that the language that we are using and even the representational trans now would be a lot different and so we can ask questions around you know cultural protocol for trans but we have to make sure that the language that we're using to describe what's going on actually meets what the community already understand or interpret transness to be prior to and then tell them about BlackBrainbo when BlackBrainbo exists online sorry Damian particularly on Facebook and stuff and on you know Instagram obviously so that when they don't feel isolated and lonely that they can see themselves reflected positively and what we do know is that our mob are quite resourceful so they they go through a lot of the comments and able to then identify people like themselves and there's been connections for that and it's an informal peer-to-peer support that we find that's happening. Thanks Damian so Judy's asked if the slides are going to be available yes Judy they absolutely will be available to you after this webinar we've had another live question come in Damian saying what are some of the best practices or current good ideas to making the front door of a service welcoming or inviting I'll tell you a bit of a story I deliver it um you know that they said there's some personations queer cultural competency workshop and I delivered it in um Tennant Creek um I delivered it throughout the Northern Territory did a bit of a road trip down to Alice Springs and uh Ani Nini is the Aboriginal Medical Service in Tennant Creek and I delivered to third of their staff so it's about the 30 or 40 staff at the first um the first workshop they invited me back the second time so I worked with them to find some additional funding to get me back down to Tennant Creek and when I just before I started um there were people who had been to the first one who wanted to come back to the second one and what they shared with me was that they had um one of the thing is their family and um and children's centre which is on the main street which in Tennant Creek everything's on the main street um on the Stewart Highway there were three flag poles and only two were being used one for the Aboriginal flag and the other for the Torres Strait Under Flag they actually had a rainbow or pride flag in their office space and so they put it up um I also hand out badges um throughout the workshop as well once and once it's been completed and one of their clients um was who was accessing the service as a single parent um getting support um you know in the stresses that they were experiencing shortly after that flag went up they disclosed to the person that their therapist or the person that they'll see that they were actually in the same sex relationship and that they then started to bring their partner into the conversation or into the into the service prior to that they didn't know that they could feel comfortable enough to to share um that they're actually in the same sex relationship um similarly with um a younger client um their their council support worker had a rainbow um I have the rainbow badges that I give out have also the black and brown stripe on it as well to be more inclusive they saw that and they disclosed and this was after a 12 month relationship therapeutic relationship they disclosed to their support worker or council that they were um you know their sexuality differences and this is the the simplicity of this symbolism has it's opening up um and in in strengthening the relationship to the therapeutic contents and this particular young person um the the work that they were doing together was able to really get to the root cause of um what was causing and the distress and so they the service that was able to provide it was a lot more richer and it just came down to a badge and a flag so these are really these are starting points um again essential services are behind these front doors so they must must be welcoming for everybody to go through. Thanks Damien and I think in a way uh Damien's just answered a question that came in from Amy on the live which was about good cultural competency training and I think you know Damien's just mentioned he's delivering that training so certainly reach out to him and if he can't get to you or you know a webinar doesn't suit you um then he'll certainly be able to connect you in without the services who are doing that work. So we'll go to another one of our questions that we got ahead of the webinar today which is I work as an EAP counsellor mostly on the phone or zoom I would like your views on any specific considerations I need to apply when speaking with Indigenous queer folk. Um I would um apply the same considerations that you would use when in person um I think that there is um you also to be this is where the person centred focus comes into play um don't come with any kind of assumptions around um oh I've got an Aboriginal person you know on the phone or on the video or in person I need to behave in a certain way um at the previous webinar I've done for MPHN the the theme that I said is just don't be racist um and then it's also you know in in terms of you know the thing with the LGBTI as well it's just don't be homophobic don't be transphobic and perhaps do a little bit of um you know research to see what that actually could look like um but also you know there's there's a few myths out there um around Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander folk and and they're not in this I mean some of some myths are based in reality but some of them are not applicable to all of us you know about not looking people in the eye I mean that's certainly not the case for me um again as an Aboriginal Torres Strait Islander person um I feel quite comfortable seeing a female clinician um some won't so it's about ensuring that you've had that conversation or you're aware of um who that client is in and really delivering a service that is centred on on who they are and on their needs and their level of comfortability. Thanks Damien. So we've had a question come in the live asking about what are good strategies for organisations to reach and support brother boys and sister girls? Wow um again I think it's just around visibility it is you know the the biggest barrier from the conversations that I've had with our mob is that if like because we we live in a world where there is there is quite a bit of racism and there is quite a bit of phobia you know across the um the sexuality and gender minority spectrum that the apprehension of going to services just on the thought that the experience um you know is going to be negative that they're going to experience racism or they're going to experience one of those other um you know phobic aggression it's going to stop people from going through those front doors so sometimes it is just as simple as um you know putting a flag up and I I draw on that experience as a bit of a bit of a reader back in um my I was living in Perth in my 20s and the bookstores that had the rainbow flags I knew that there were stories in there about me so that's what got me through that front door and so don't be fearful of having us through your front door I know that there's some people saying oh but when they get through the front door they could make it even worse what's also worse is that people aren't accessing the services that they need um and and the only barrier could be is that those services um don't look um that they are welcoming and and so you need to be able to stand outside and if you know any First Nations queer folk or First Nations folk or queer folk get one of them and stand outside the front door with them and say well do walk through this door and if they say no ask them why not um you draw on your local community and those that access to your services Someone on the live has asked a question which I might start responding to and then pass over to Damien is what's the difference between an ally and an accomplice I think in my understanding an accomplice is someone who's really willing to get there in the trenches and really do that work and as opposed to an ally who might be someone who's supportive and and may have people's back and an ally may not as well and an ally might just be someone who you know does talk the talk but doesn't necessarily walk the walk but it encompasses someone's really willing to sort of get in there and and be accountable and you know do stuff with their privilege but what are your thoughts on that Damien? I look both are I think of of equal value or are both valuable you know the the more allyship that is shown for us and whether it is just waving a flag it all helps and this is something that I've learned over the time you know through Black Rainbow's presence with social media I've been asked I do a a lecture session for um of course out of Macquarie University and I get asked about selectivism to me it all actually it all plays a role um if it increases the particularly I guess for us if it places if it increases the visibility or first nation queer folk I'm all for it the encompasses stuff like this works hard work it's really hard work and you know I this was not something that I Black Rainbow was nothing that I set up to where it is now that I've ever envisioned it would be I had a job I had a creative directory um doing other stuff I'm bit of a nerd I want to create apps um but you know the way in which it's evolved based on the feedback is and you know through this experience is that the tough conversations and people say you're going to have tough conversations they're brutal and they're also brutal in terms of like ultimately I've got to say to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health sector you're being homophobic you know I've got to go back to this community my own community and say you're being homophobic and then also then to the LGBTI community and say look you're being racist you know the barriers that you're putting up the structural racism here exists and so it leaves you in this place of you know being quite isolated because you've just you know the two other arms of our service provision in this country outside of mainstream is it you know the rainbow service industry and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ones and the leadership I go to well there's racism and there's homophobia that you're that you're presenting and both groups don't want to hear that you know they don't want to hear that they're behaving in that way so it and this is where I think there's a lot of struggle in terms of the advancement of First Nations queer work is that we are talking back to our leaders and saying in both the queer community and the First Nations community it's like your behaviour is harming us homophobia is a risk factor for suicide racism is a risk factor for suicide at a structural level and as I at the beginning of this when I said this research was funded by donations this it was through the partnership with Macquarie University and this is the accomplices stuff stepping up and saying yeah we're going to join you in this we're going to get this work done um like our babies are dying too and so it is tough work but it's important work so the accomplices they're the ones that you know they have the capacity to get into those trenches and take a few of these punches with us as well thanks Damien um Jackie's asked a great question which is when it comes to visibility some may feel that while our identities are becoming normalized that our visibility may expose us to danger and violence is there any advice for opinions you could offer in regards to navigating the sensitive and vulnerable space wow um I think that you know and I can only draw and I guess I can't speak for I guess anybody else but I can just draw in my own experience we become some really resilient folk and individuals um in terms of you know simply just coming out there's a lot of celebration these days and you know in terms of people coming out um but I also think that there's a significant proportion of um queer folk who have been out for a long time um and it's hard it does it I mean I I'd hope that it's it's better now um but it is around you know if you're more aware now of the um as I guess as non um non queer folk of the um the challenges that are out there then you can step up and provide that extra bit of support um for those people or even at a community level um I can't tell you how much of a relief it was um for marriage equality the past I mean that there's a cultural shift um for us as a as a nation um when marriage equality apart and um got passed and the message that we got loud and clear is that you know for a large portion of our population group they're on our backs um so that was really heartwarming um I'm not sure if Damien has frozen um Dam can you let me know please okay oh while Damien sort of resets I'll step in here uh for a minute something that I would throw into this conversation about the cost of visibility is I've read a book recently wonderful book by Mark Hebe called Black Trans Feminism and it really talks about you know the the quite steep rise in the public visibility of trans women of color in particular across the world so we think of an example like Laverne Cox in Orange is the new black and so that you know and she was on the cover of Time magazine it was labelled a transgender tipping point so to have a black trans woman as the figure of that tipping point is really important but I think that um what the book Black Trans Feminism really talks about is that sure that visibility so important it gives other black trans women awareness that they're not alone but then it comes at this great cost of of black trans women in particular being targeted for that visibility so absolutely we need to be mindful that when people are becoming more visible they also become more vulnerable and so that becomes the work of the accomplices and the allies to really step in and step up and say hey not just I've got you back but I'm going to respond to that racism I'm going to respond to that transphobia so that visibility isn't solely a cost uh to and in this instance to First Nations queer people thanks Damien I'm going to be back again and you're on mute Damien I'm mute yes but I'm back so we might go to another question that we got uh before uh the webinar today um which is what feedback have you received from more remotely located communities about service availability or barriers and what providers or services will be beneficial to folks from the queer community in those locations? Um more more information more knowledge um tell us more um one of the things that came out of the study that we did in Western Australia um came from our elders which is really rich they said tell us what we need to know so it is around maintaining these conversations and uh bringing these conversations into those communities but it needs to also be done in a respectful way again the workshop that I deliver I deliver to um to services but what I know from you know working in regional remote um Australia is that a lot of First Nations mobile average on tire show item mob work at these services so by attending the workshop not only am I sharing them information they can strengthen their service delivery but outside of their work hours this is information that they can go back and have conversations in their families in their communities and what we are seeing and I'm not saying it's a direct result of my workshops but really in terms of the conversations around First Nations Koreaners and the visibility is we're now seeing a lot more engagement you know in pride by First Nations organizations or support um from Aboriginal medical services and the like but also during NAIDOC we're also seeing um you know the First Nations queer folk being sought out to actively participate and become speakers at these events thanks Damien and just thanks to the people who we've answered their questions for posting your thanks to us it's really great that you're engaging in that you're feeling like we're we're getting to your questions and we're doing a good job in answering them so another question we got ahead of the live was uh the specific obstacles in receiving mental health care by the communities that we're talking about today again I think we touched on this earlier on it's like apart from the the universal barriers that exists for all the people you're more namely stigma you know it's the need for organizations to engage in First Nations out queer cultural competency training to at least understand and and part of this here that you're doing is part of that is that for a lot of people they they when totally participating in this conversation is they didn't even know of the the risk or the that Aboriginal child trying to you know LGBTQ child plus more work of considerable risk across part of a large range of issues I guess for this presentation here this webinar you know we I'm focusing more on the suicide outcomes here or the data and also the mental health so we need to be able to ensure that you know the the services to if you're particularly delivering in those areas um again increasing access um but also it's around you know when you're speaking it is that person centered their client centered approach is understanding um your client or your consumer whatever term that you use understanding their story and what it actually means to them also to be First Nation First Nations queer folk don't bring any stereotypes or any myths to the table seriously simply sorry not seriously simply just focus on who they are as you will with others and and not make any prejudgements um and something that I say and is be easy on yourself if you make a mistake just apologize for it um you know the overcoming that fear of making mistakes going to make the relationship also a lot stronger which is the outcomes then also for your client um so you know when only you know you're thinking about 30 percent um had engagement services be mindful of the distrust that may already exist and allow for the relationship to develop it may have taken some really big strides and big steps for that person to you know to realize not only realize that they needed the support but to go in the face of potential you know um microaggressions or racism or phobia that they knew they needed support and so they'll take in that step so be mindful that the there could be some fragility in that initial part of that relationship and something we spoke about in our last webinar we did together Damien on LGBTQ people and suicidality was around if we make those those slips those mistakes for example if we misgender someone to say thank you for being corrected and I'll do better next time because of course when we say sorry the cultural response is to say that's okay but it's not okay that we've misgendered someone so we don't want to put trans people for example or if we say something unintentionally racist we don't want to put indigenous people in the position of having to say that's okay because it's not so we sort of we say thanks thanks for correcting us um and I'm really going to do better next time um I'm going to learn from that so a question that we've had coming on the live from Matty is can you comment on ways that communities could be connected on a more grassroots level so that people don't depend only on government provided services and can build resilience within themselves you would know your networks better than I do build those strengthen those start those conversations with the other services that are in town um there's a whole lot um they can be done um independent of you know government funded services you know I know this from working in regional remote places um the workshop that I'm about to when I roll out throughout the northern territory um I think I get about 30 people at each session they could be up to 10 different organizations at those um at those workshops and even in small places I can almost guarantee that not everybody knows each other we're talking to each other but what I find is happening is that because everyone attended this workshop it strengthens or creates a relationship because they've come in and they've just spent a whole day learning the same thing and so there's a more of a collective response out in the community at a service provider level but also after hours as well in terms of supporting um First Nations Rainbow Folk and that in a way sort of answers the question that you might want to say more to Damien that's just come here on the live from Geordie which is asking what can people do to support financially as a volunteer or in terms of services in terms of the lives of First Nations LGBTQ sister girls and brother boys um the first thing we do is you know in the environments that you're in um see what's what's locally happening um and um one of the things that works really well for us is that people come to us and say um these are my skills do you need them or this is what I can do or um what can we do um you know in terms of um funding or don't look you know black room operates and donations we we are very particular about where we spend our money as well I'm I've been working in health for over two two decades now and the thing that has was drummed into me in my very early in my studies when I was doing my social work double degree is around outcomes and impact not just outputs that the has that what you do has to make a difference so that's why for us our investment in this research is that this is this is not an output for us this is an outcome with the hope that there's going to be other outcomes here so we can create that impact you know the fact that we have you know some of the first baseline data around mental health and suicide ally for our community um again is one to be celebrated but also you know in 2022 this is where that has taken this long to get here um so you I would in your first instance um in your in your surrounding in the community or in the environment that you are um see what's operating there but I know this as well in in the creation of black rainbow is that we've had to take our lives online because at that our communities you know don't necessarily always accept us so we've taken our message online so if you don't have access you know if your community is online or in you don't you don't not aware what's in your your local community space by all means support us um you know your money goes towards um work that needs to be done everything that we do um there's a reason behind it um our graphics are really amazing our colors are really stand out um but there's a reason behind what we're doing and and there's about also the messaging around um that First Nations queer folk exist because a lot of folk don't know that we do um and also that there is um this this this this initialism with these funny letters lgbqti are really quite confusing for people and even um I know some non- Aboriginal heterosexual folk is like who are my my mates in school and they're like we have no idea what this language is or what gender affirming care is so we're using our position and our place and our visibility now reached to to provide that also for that education thanks Damien well unfortunately we're at the end of question time I think a few just came in at the last minute which always happens but I think a lot of what Damien just said now actually answers a lot of those last questions about resources and the best ways to connect with people including you Damien was just talking about uh online and obviously some of his findings suggest that Instagram is a great way to reach out of people uh next slide please so thanks again to Damien for everything that he spoke about this evening and being such a generous speaker and answering so many uh questions um in terms of resources uh that have been recommended by Damien there's lots of them available there including contact details of Black Rainbow which as we've spoken about many times is a great place to start the conversations even if that means Damien directly somewhere else I think it's a really important place to start and so you can see that on the resources tab and we'll also have this information coming up to you along with the slides uh as a follow-up to this webinar next slide please please please before you log out today um complete the survey reminder and you also get a prompt about that it's really helpful for a match being to learn what was done well and what we could do better or what you might like to learn more about in the future um your statement of attendance will come out um within the next month uh and we'll give you as I said that you know a link to the online resources that that have been compiled just to to support the webinar today um I'd also really like to emphasise which what we said at the beginning of today's webinar which is that this is the first of four of part of the Quiraburi series uh the next one's going to be on November the third and we'd love you to join us for that and the next one coming up after that will be in February next year Damien's already lined up some amazing speakers

really encourage you to sign up for that webinar as well just on um sorry the um the next Quiraburi webinar that's um the study at a WA that I would be referring to equal breaking the silence another groundbreaking study led by our First Nations pre-focus well and I think that's what's so important about this series is you know I'm not First Nations here and so that's you know a complex issue for me sitting here is the facilitator on Damien's invitation but you know each one is being determined by Damien and who he invites and the content is being determined and delivered by First Nations people so I think it's such a vital space and for people to be hearing about the latest research I mean today you're hearing about Damien's research that isn't quite out yet in the next couple of days it will be but really getting that cutting-edge information that otherwise may be hard to come by and but hopefully is really helpful to your service here on the screen we've got some other mhpn

Bonjour tout le monde. Good morning everyone. Merci d'être des nôtres. Before we get into things, I have some news to share regarding the Canada-U.S. border. Over the past few days, I've spoken to President Trump about what we can do to slow the spread of COVID-19. Deputy Prime Minister Freeland has been in touch with Vice President Pence and Secretary Pompeo. I just spoke to President Trump again this morning, and we have agreed that both Canada and the United States will temporarily restrict all non-essential travel across the Canada-U.S. border. I just spoke to President Trump, and we have agreed that Canada and the United States will temporarily ban any non-essential passage to the border. Travelers will no longer be permitted to cross the border for recreation and tourism. In both our countries, we're encouraging people to stay home. We're telling our citizens not to visit their neighbours if they don't absolutely have to. This collaborative and reciprocal measure is an extension of that prudent approach. I want to be clear, though, that essential travel will continue. Our governments recognise that it is critical that we preserve supply chains between both countries. These supply chains ensure that food, fuel and life-saving medicines reach people on both sides of the border. Supply chains, including trucking, will not be affected by this new measure. Canadians and Americans cross the border every day to do essential work or, for other urgent reasons, that will not be impacted. These days, all Canadians feel the consequences of COVID-19. To ensure your safety, we recommend to everyone to work from home, to avoid public places, to buy only what you need at the grocery store, and above all, to prove kindness, empathy and compassion to those around you. We all have to do our part to protect our health and the spread of COVID-19 is forcing us all to change our ways. And for many people, that's a huge adjustment. If you work in a restaurant, drive a cab, organise events or freelance to pay your bills, working from home is not so simple. If, just like if you work in the oil and gas sector or the tourism and seafood industries, you're looking at the uncertainty in the global economy and probably wondering not only how long this is going to last, but how long your savings are going to last. No matter who you are or what you do, this is a time where you should be focused on your health and that of your neighbours.  Last week, we announced a whole range of measures to protect jobs, small businesses and the economy from waving the waiting period for employment insurance, sickness benefits to kick in, to increasing support for employers and businesses. We introduced special measures under the Work Sharing Program to help employers who fall on hard times during COVID-19. And if your business faces a cash crunch, we will help you bridge to better times. We're working with our financial crown corporations through the business credit availability program to protect jobs and businesses with $10 billion in credit. But as we said last week, it's just a first step. When we announced these measures, we said we would do more, and that's what brought me here this morning. In these extraordinary times, our government is taking extraordinary measures. The measures we're announcing today will provide up to $27 billion in direct support to Canadian workers and businesses, plus $55 billion to meet liquidity needs of Canadian businesses and households through tax deferrals to help stabilize the economy. Combined, this $82 billion in support represents more than 3% of Canada's GDP. Let's start with people who don't qualify for employment insurance and don't have access to paid sick leave. Our government will introduce the Emergency Care Benefit, which will provide money every two weeks to workers who have to stay home. People will receive this benefit for 14 weeks for an amount comparable to what would be paid through EI. This applies to people who fall ill, people who have been placed in quarantine, or have to self-isolate. It also applies to those who have to take care of a family member with COVID-19, but, as I said, fail to qualify for EI. If you lose your job and you do not qualify for EI, we will be introducing a COVID-19 Emergency Support Benefit to help you. This will apply also to people who are self-employed and have to close shop because of the virus. Let's start with people who don't qualify for employment insurance. Our government will introduce the Emergency Care Benefit, which will provide money to workers who have to stay home because of COVID-19 every two weeks. People will receive this benefit for 14 weeks and the amount will be comparable to what would be paid through EI.  It also applies to people who have to take care of a family member with COVID-19, but, as I said, fail to qualify for EI. If you lose your job and you do not qualify for EI, we will be introducing the Emergency Support Benefit to help you. This measure will also apply to autonomous workers who have to stop their activities because of the virus. As part of this economic plan, our government will take additional steps to protect jobs. We will provide employers of small businesses with a temporary wage subsidy equal to 10% of salary paid to employees for a period of three months. This will encourage employers to keep staff on the payroll during these uncertain times. To protect jobs, our government will provide employers of small businesses with a temporary wage subsidy equal to 10% of salary paid to employees for a period of three months. This measure will encourage employers to keep employees on the payroll during these uncertain times. We're in the middle of tax season, and I know a lot of people are wondering what COVID-19 means for their personal finances. For those who have filed their taxes and find out that they owe money, they will have until August 2020 to pay. If you make your tax declaration and you learn that you owe money, you will have until now 2020 to pay. We also have a more targeted help during the next months for different groups of people who are particularly affected by the virus or who are in a vulnerable situation. This brings me to the next measure that we're announcing today, which is aimed at parents. Families with young kids are going to find the coming months especially difficult with school closures and additional childcare responsibilities. Parents already know how much the Canada child benefit helps with the costs of raising kids. To take some of that pressure off, our government will temporarily boost the CCB in the coming months. To help parents through this difficult period, our government will temporarily bona fide the Canadian child allocation during the next months. With this plan, we're also going to do more for lower-income people. In May, our government will supplement the GST credit, a tax-free payment sent to low-income Canadians every few months to offset the consumer tax that they pay. Every adult who qualifies will receive up to $300 with $150 for every child. To help people whose income is low or modest, our government will increase the tax credit on products and services. In May, adults who are eligible will receive up to $300 and up to $150 per child. While all Canadians are feeling the impacts of COVID-19, some groups are particularly vulnerable. For people who are still paying off their student loans, including young people and those who are starting a family, our government will put in place a six-month interest-free moratorium on their Canada student loans. For people experiencing homelessness, we are doubling the Reaching Home Program, which provides funding to communities to help them address their local needs. For anyone fleeing domestic or gender-based violence, we will boost funding for shelters that provide sanctuary when self-isolating at home is simply not an option. And to support immediate needs in First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Nation communities, we are setting up a distinctions-based Indigenous Community Support Fund. This list is by no means exhaustive. But these are some of the things our government is doing to make sure that no matter where you live, what you do or who you are, you will get the support you need during this time. In Canada, public health should never hinge on financial considerations. Today, we are announcing a plan to help people. We are focusing on the most urgent needs, but as I said from the beginning, our response will evolve as the situation evolves. No matter what the future holds, Canadians can count on us. Our job is to support you. It is to give you a push when you have the most needs. And that is what we do with the measures we have announced until date, and that is what we will do. I want to turn to additional measures for businesses as part of this economic plan. To help businesses navigate these uncertain economic times, Export Development Canada will provide support to Canadian companies affected by the global situation. For farmers and our primary food producers, we will boost Farm Credit Canada. And we know some sectors of our economy are more vulnerable to COVID-19 than others. That is why in the coming days, we will be looking at ways in which we can support them all, including through instruments like the Canada Account. Today, we are announcing the measures we have already taken to protect Canadians, their health and our economy. Minister Morneau has also obtained, alongside Canadian banks, an commitment to provide support to businesses and people affected by COVID-19. He maintains a regular contact in this file, as well as with business leaders, trade representatives and international homologues. Our team is paying close attention to the economic impacts of decisions we make across the board to slow the spread of this virus. On Monday, I announced that Canada was closing its air borders to people who are not Canadian citizens or permanent residents, with some exceptions. A range of other measures on travel. But travel restrictions will not apply to commerce or trade. We are working continuously to ensure the supply of important goods to Canada. Today, we have announced $27 billion in direct support to Canadian workers and businesses, plus $55 billion to meet liquidity needs of Canadian businesses and households to help stabilize the economy through tax deferrals. Economic measures will ensure that our economy rebounds after this. And while we are taking a significant step today to help families get through these challenging times, our government is prepared to do more. But whether we're talking about economic, travel or health measures, collaboration and coordination remains essential. Our team is in constant communication with our colleagues in the provinces and territories, as well as Indigenous leaders and communities to ensure that we have a coordinated Canada-wide approach so we face this and recover from this together. We're also working with our international counterparts over the last number of days I've spoken with leaders from around the world, including with fellow G7 leaders. Working together is how we'll get through this. As families, as a community, as a country. Like many of you over the past few days, I've seen stories of people doing just that. Of people donating money to food banks to help those in need. Of friends setting up online groups to chat. Of retired nurses and doctors stepping up to health. Of young people giving a hand to elderly neighbours by dropping off some extra groceries at their door. I have to tell you, it gives me a lot of hope. I want to close by recognising everyone on the front lines who's doing an incredible job of keeping Canadians safe and healthy. Grocers keeping their shelves full and our families fed. Postal workers helping us stay home. Pharmacists filling our prescriptions. Healthcare professionals caring for our most vulnerable public health officials and first responders caring for our safety. I know it's a hard time but that's exactly why we need to keep supporting each other.  Merci. Thank you everyone.


Alright guys, how are we doing? Welcome back to another reaction video on this very YouTube channel We are at number 69 on the list of the top 100 NFL players for the year of 2022 It's Cameron Jordan, you know, he's gonna be there a bit there or thereabouts whether it be on the field or off it whether it be, you know behind the camera or Or in front of it Which he has been a lot this series thus far you expect it. I mean he's a guy with it with an opinion He's a guy who has a respected opinion, and he's a guy with probably about a 35 inch neck Regardless of all those things he does land himself on the list and he most certainly deserves it He's a 300 pound absolute behemoth and he plays defensive end for the Saints. Let's get into it We should be number one on this list.  It's not me No, it's not not this year Let's throw a date at you January 9th, 2022 January 9th, 2022. I'm assuming you got three or four sacks against Matt Ryan in one game fourth quarter Matt Ryan St. Spring four back to pass pressure again.  Well, that's one Jordan is 23rd career sack of Matt Ryan What?  I tell you what 24 sacks in an entire career is considered pretty stellar, but against one guy? 22 games his favorite man the sack. Yes, Sarastee. Oh My god. What is it the last time I sat Matt Ryan? It's a sack lunch I've heard him say it before he'll most probably say it again Cameron Jordan coming up against Matt Ryan is a sack lunch Oh For like three years, right? I don't know the next time we play the Colts Why do you have to go so far? It's so disrespectful. I got no call. No Twitter DM. No IG DM I mean, there's so many ways. I could have been reached just like hey, Cam. This ain't working out. I'm leaving Cameron Jordan and Matt Ryan have a special relationship that has left Oh, no. Oh, no, he's done it again Oh He sees Cameron Jordan coming he just he just Takes to the floor. He doesn't want to bar of it. Get off me son I'd rather I'd rather take myself down to the ground than have you land on top of me. Now watch them go Jordan's 23 career sacks on Ryan are more than any player has sacked a single quarterback in NFL history I'm not surprised. Cam Jordan. He has been a menace to Matt Ryan. That is ridiculous I'm just like the better ex-girlfriend. I'm just like, hope you don't succeed Getting all these texts from folks like I need time to process I'm guess I'm happy for him if he's happy if that's what he wanted and what's best for him. Well, Atlanta Falcons and Maddie ice and Hashtag levels are an NFL history. We'll always have that farewell to black and red number two Not easy to let go of someone so important to you. I'll tell you that it's almost like family There's always gonna be the next favorite, you know Jordan may already have his eye on someone new. There's a Tom Brady one cuz he got upset. I Tell you what Tom Brady getting upset Tom Brady getting upset. That's something I can really get behind Let's go. Let's watch this You know what, you know the man who he's actually Upset with would most probably be Tristan Wefts. Although Tristan Wefts is an absolute beast and You know out out done himself In the two years has been in the league. I mean Tom Brady's not happy to get sacked At any point Let's see what happens Brandy and trouble balls loose That's a big turn on huge. Yeah, I'm part of that Toughest match up this year probably cam Jordan He lines up wide interesting then comes us barreling through your face I know what he's gonna do, but I still got to stop it. He's very disruptive Get in the interesting He's pretty dangerous, he's been a force in the league for a long time older and wiser Tell you what Cameron Jordan's like well Tom Brady's not guaranteed to come back for another season I may as well make this one count as 11 season Jordan added something new to his game I added patience to my game when you go five or six games that I had my first sec It's a whole lot of who saw like The Seattle game that was the first second the year like I needed it Cam Jordan gets the sack that is something a lot of Saints fans have been waiting for this is a 17 game season We're gonna take this as it comes and once they come they come in bunches So get yours cuz I'm gonna get mine and things started getting real effective real quick When it all came in it was to a game three a game for a game And he will go down Jordan again three straight games with back-to-back sacks get one you get to get to you get three Hey cam Jordan beast away Seven and a half sacks in his lap. That was a solid sack three games The biggest back-end of the season that anybody that I've been playing with has had and it was phenomenal to watch The way that he dominates his opponent. It's just a complete. Oh Tell you what it's not a sack, but it's it's a pretty fairly influential play Well, I keep hearing my name. That's a little man. I'm in the middle of a game. It's corn water tossing do it What's he gonna do? Is he gonna sign the ball? Is he gonna sign the ball for this fella? I Need a pen Sitting on the sideline Mate what an absolute legend I'll tell you what the Pro Bowl game is where you want to get the signatures I don't want to just be like a great run stopper in this league or a great pass usher I am the embodiment of both I came to Lee thinking I was gonna be the most complete defensive end ever And whether you tell me I am or not in my mind. I'm always striving to be Not a bad throw must admit talking to NFL top 100. I Mean, it's great to be acknowledged. But at the same time the prize is to be the best Oh And here he is again, would you believe I tell you what he's a real stalwart of this top 100 series There's different athletes in different years But this year is Cameron Jordan's look. We're not gonna look at any stats today.  We need to know how many sacks he got last year So with that in mind, I'm gonna go get actually no, I don't need to use my phone anymore. Let's do this Cameron Jordan because when the sacks come in twos they come in threes and when they come in threes they come in fours and Let's have a look 33 6 4 290 holy shit, California college some sort of California College 20 2007 to 2010 Round one of the 2011 draft with pick number 24 went to the Saints been there ever since seven time Pro Bowler including all of the last five years Round of 478 40-odd dash 35 inch 31 inch vertical 9 foot 9 on the broad 12 25 reps on the bench and an X For the wonder lick I've never seen an X Been I've never seen an X as a value for the wonder lick test. Let's have a look at that No, that's not gonna tell me well regardless of all that he's played a hundred and seventy seven games 16 games every single of His Well, that can't be right. Well, that doesn't make sense We've got one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven Eleven times 16 equals 106 176 But they list him as having a hundred and seventy seven games now I'm not quite sure how that happens But Wikipedia you got to pick up your act whoever's editing this maybe I should edit it if you reckon I should edit it Let's try start editing All right looks like a bit of code here Jesus a wee bit of code What do we got totals all right one seven six oh my god, I've never done this before let's publish the changes and See what's up?
