Breaking Barriers to Employment
A criminal record does not have to be a barrier to employment. Let us set you up for success in finding a job through our mentoring program, one-on-one support, job readiness workshops and introductions to our employer partners.
Watch our video to find out more.
The Success Works program will help you to develop a pathway to self-reliance and empowerment through transitional support, professional development workshops, professional styling advice and provision of suitable clothing and mentoring both before and after securing employment. This pathway also includes introduction to employment opportunities offered through our employer partnership program. If you are recently released or you have been in the community for some time, we would like to hear from you.
