Young People get creative with Victorian Arabic Social Services

VASS short film from Vessal Safaei on Vimeo.

Check out this great film made by Vessal Safaei with Victorian Arabic Social Services (VASS). It documents an amazing program VASS ran last year with young people from Arabic backgrounds.

Workshops in public speaking, art and rap all came together to build confidence and skills with incredible results.

It makes me wonder, when was the last time you did something that gave you more confidence to stand up for yourself? Feel free to post comments below.
