This paper seeks to contribute to an improved understanding of the concept of social and emotional wellbeing by considering the significance of our program findings for social and emotional wellbeing and by exploring the role of spirituality in social and emotional wellbeing from a local perspective. Analysis of the 2003 FWB participant interviews at Yarrabah identified spirituality as a theme. Following this, the 2005 Yarrabah FWB data were analysed according to an inclusive understanding of spirituality.
