Working collaboratively with communities, organisations and governments to promote social inclusion and to enhance the health and wellbeing of all, particularly those populations, communities and individuals who experience social exclusion.
The CHASE philosophy is that individuals, communities and populations should be assisted to find their own ways to promote social inclusion and to find their own solutions to exclusion issues. We appreciate that not everyone can, or wishes to be included in the 'mainstream'. Nevertheless, the health of the so-called 'included' and 'excluded' can be promoted regardless of their social positioning.
On the 12th February 2013, CHASE held its inaugural Partnerships Symposium, the aim of which was to bring together organisations working in the area of social exclsuion to share learnings and to foster and build partnerships. With presentations from Professor Brendan Crotty (Pro-Vice Chancellor, Faculty of Health), Professor Ann Taket (Director of CHASE), and CHASE members Dr Fiona Andrews and Dr Maria Pallotta-Chiarolli, the day was a rounding successing.

Young adults in modern society are pursuing a range of pathways into independence, pathways that often include returning home. This study, entitled "'Everyone's life is so different': The experiences of young Australian adults who return home" from CHASE members Dr Claire Henderson-Wilson and Dr Fiona Andrews, and PhD candidate Elyse Warner, draws upon interviews with young people to explore their diverse experiences of returning to the parental home. A copy of the paper can be found here.
