An Indigenous-led study of Perth primary schools has found that educators often rely on symbolic gestures rather than meaningful action to support Aboriginal children at school, prompting calls for Noongar storytelling, ceremony and language to be embedded in the curriculum and mandatory training for non-Aboriginal teachers.

Often diagnosed in the teenage years, childhood-onset lupus is a serious, potentially fatal autoimmune disease that causes the body to attack itself. For as many as 10,000 U.S. youths, mostly females and people who are Black, Latinx, Indigenous, Asian and from the Pacific Islands, it can bring extreme fatigue, mood changes, pain and inflammation that affect many parts of the body.  A new cognitive behavioral therapy program known as TEACH is helping young lupus patients learn to take better care of themselves so they can feel better faster.
