Our June Community Champion is Federation of Indian Association of ACT.
Federation of Indian Associations of ACT (FINACT) is a not-for-profit community organisation aimed at increasing awareness and community engagement for people of Indian origin in the ACT. FINACT holds many events, including workshops, community sports and exercise clubs, celebrations, cultural events, and more. One of FINACT’s bigger initiatives is Chetna: The Power of Perception, an initiative aimed at reducing domestic and family-based violence in a new and innovative way. Chetna is aimed at changing the perception of family members, to create more positive bonds between each other. The first event to start off Chetna’s journey was a Dad and Daughter Dance, aimed at reshaping the family dynamics between fathers and their children. Followed by the dance, workshops have been planned to alter the potential pathway to family and domestic violence by rewriting values and relationships within households.
