How Could We Help
We provide training opportunities which target key development areas for newly arrived migrant, refugee and asylum seeker women.
The aim of our training is to equip the women with practical skills that allow them to adjust to their new life in Australia, while also providing them with the essential skills required to enhance their economic self-sufficiency, through employment or entrepreneurship opportunities.
