Even though Australia is one of the best countries to be now with this Global Pandemic going on, we still have many people who have their life affected by the Covid and now more than ever are desperate for support.
With an increased number of vulnerable people, our community needs professional support and community sevices in different areas of their life, such as financial counseling, mental health support, domestic and family violence support, emergency accommodation, and child protection.
The community worker responsibility is not only to connect people to welfare support and services they need at that moment but is actually understanding their social and economic situations and then empowered them to become independent, self determined, socially included and job ready and then be able to change their life. Is the best way to make a positive impact on the world, helping vulnerable people to live happier and healthier lives.
In Australia, the Community Services sector is continually growing year on year and is the second largest sector in the Health Industry, with a projected job growth of 28% over the next 5years*. With thousands of jobs being added across the country, as a community worker professional, you can apply for a job in a variety of places such as hospitals, schools, aged care facilities, refugee and asylum services, mental health services, local government, Indigenous community services, family violence centres, and etc.
