Ramandeep Singh has been working as a social worker in Cairns and adjoining remote communities of Queensland for over a decade now.


He recognises that family violence issues can still be a taboo topic for the Punjabi community, but he feels that a majority of the migrants are not aware of the many services available, especially in remote parts of Australia.

 And he says, whilst important to avail of these services at times of need, its also important to advocate for a change in the mindset of the Punjabi community.
