IMPACT STORIES
Carys has been unemployed since leaving school 4 years ago
Carys, completed year 12. Since leaving high school 4 years ago has enrolled in different courses that in reality do not match her skills and interests. It was during her participation in Steps to Success that I found Carys can achieve more than what she has been advised by relevant organisations.Â
Matching the interests to employment
Georjah, who prior to starting the program lacked the confidence in applying for jobs. Georjah now has the confidence to approach businesses with her resume where she would like to work.Â
