Social Work honours student Matt assists Jean in deconstructing the previous Part A episode with Jo, Chris, and Demi. Matt speaks about his honours research and lived experience of navigating the family court system and critically reflecting on ways to build parental agency in the legal system. Matt and Jean unpack the ways creative alternatives such as restorative practices can be utilised as a more emancipatory approach in justice, military, domestic and family violence, and mental health settings.
