Casework Support and Services
At the heart of Western Sydney MRC is the Service Team. The Service Team is comprised of a dedicated team of caseworkers, who are committed to improving the quality of life for newly arrived and vulnerable migrants. The casework model for the Service Team is client centred and strengths based; clients are empowered to set their own goals, and build their capacity to live independently in Australia, with their strengths and skills being brought to the forefront.
Youth Mentoring Program
Our mentoring program aims to support and build the capacity of young people from a refugee background to achieve their goals and shape their own futures. We have designed a flexible, mixed-mode mentoring program that strives to enhance the economic, social and civic participation of young people and enhance their personal wellbeing and sense of self.
