Fernanda Torresi
Manager at QLD Program of Assistance to Survivors of Torture and Trauma
Fernanda is the Community Relationships and Capacity Building Manager at the Queensland Program of Assistance to Survivors of Torture and Trauma (QPASTT). QPASTT is a specialised, community based, state-wide organisation that works with survivors of refugee trauma related experiences to support their recovery at all levels - individual, family and community.
Fernanda considers the Fellowship to be a unique opportunity to further develop her leadership skills and increase her understanding of how to actively influence positive and meaningful change in mental health outcomes for individuals and for the community.
