We support fieldworkers who work in refugee camps overseas. Programs We have two projects aiming to assist refugees with their settlement needs by providing fully trained volunteers to visit them regularly and assist with issues and problems that arise. The Settlement Assistance Program assists refugees who have newly arrived into Australia and are struggling with their initial settlement. The Community Links Program provides intensive assistance for the most vulnerable refugees and humanitarian entrants who require ongoing assistance with forging social links in the community. Initial Training is three full days, followed by training updates.
Volunteers visit the client once a week or more often, depending on issues arising.
Volunteers are required to report back to the Project Co-ordinator on all activities undertaken to assist the client. Refugees and humanitarian entrants who have been in Australia less than two years and need help with settlement issues. For more information, please contact us.
