How can the program assist me?

Employment Education & Training

We empower people who are disadvantaged with resources to access meaningful employment, education and training options.

Melbourne Citymission’s employment, education and training services work with young people who are homeless, at risk of homelessness or experiencing disadvantage.

We support these young people to overcome not only individual but structural barriers that prevent them from entering into education, training and employment pathways.

Our services are linked and integrated, which means that young people have a range of resources at their disposal that help them to gain the confidence and experience they need so they can develop the study, skills and work options they want.
