Disability Employment Pathways
This program is funded by the Australian Government Department of Social Services and aims to assist people with disability to create pathways to economic participation. When we talk about economic participation, we mean paid work, volunteering to help out the community, or starting your own business — tasks which contribute to the local economy.

To be eligible to participate in the program, you must
Be from a culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) background
Be aged 18 to 64 years old
Experience a disability, medical condition, or mental health condition
Be interested in trying new things, learning new skills, volunteering, or finding paid employment
What do we offer?
We support you to participate in a number of workshops and activities that provide you with information about employment, including mentoring and networking opportunities, guidance on how to turn your hobby into an enterprise, and resume and cover letter workshops.
