Amber Community

Amber Community’s Road Trauma Support Group offers a safe, supportive space to:
- Learn practical coping strategies
- Explore post-traumatic growth

Facilitated by an experienced counsellor, the program runs online, 1.5 hours weekly for 4 weeks, with a small group to ensure everyone gets the support they need.

“Joining the group has given me so much, including practical ways to cope, like better sleep and calming exercises. Most importantly, I realised I’m not alone on this journey.”

Note: For non-bereaved attendees only.

At Amber Community, we know community voices matter in creating safer roads and stronger communities. If you have 5 minutes, consider sharing your feedback in the Victoria Police Community Sentiment Survey.
