Abstract
There is a dearth of preventative programmes that enhance the Australian culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) adults’ resilience to cope with the acculturation process. This article introduces the reader to the BRiTA Futures for Adults and Parents, a culture and language sensitive programme for the CALD. The conceptual framework and the development process are described. The manualised programme consisting of one introductory and eight intervention modules is presented. A training programme is also developed to train facilitators, who can deliver the programme in English or other languages. Preliminary trials indicated that the programme was received well by the consumers. A block mode, instead of the traditional weekly sessions, appeared to be more practical for the small population for which it was trialled. Implications and future directions are discussed.
