Connect 42 (previously Chatter Matters Tasmania) is a leader in changing lives by building skills through positive communication.  We teach how kind connection with trust and shared language enable positive communication. We assist with the important attachment between incarcerated parents and their children. We teach reading and communication skills to men and women in prison and in community. We show it’s never too early or too late for people to discover the joy of reading and writing. And we build awareness of the power contained within communication skills.  Our work is evidence based, and in turn, we report on and publish our work to build upon that evidence, so others may learn from our work, as we have learned from theirs.
