How it works

You will be paired up with someone who has been in your position who will support you. They will help you to identify what you want to achieve, and support you in engaging with the job centre, drug and alcohol services, and partner agencies.

What to expect

You will have 8 - 10 mentoring sessions with your peer mentor. We will come and meet you in your local community service or in the job centre, wherever you feel most comfortable.
