Concern Australia Welfare Inc.Registered

Concern Australia provides social, emotional, physical and spiritual support and assistance which relieves suffering, helplessness and trauma to young people. We do this by way of the following programs: Hand Brake Turn assists young people between 1521 years to transition into education and employment pathways through a 5week training program offering three days per week of technical automotive skills practice and other life skill development. fiXit is certified with Social Traders as a Social Enterprise. The fiXit enterprise provides a real world professional automotive workshop experience and pathways to an apprenticeship or traineeship for Hand Brake Turn graduates. Working alongside our fiXit trainers and expert mechanics, young people gain practical workplace experience servicing cars for the general public, community partners and staff, as well as the repair and refurbishment of cars donated to the program. Inside out is our livein mentor enhanced lead tenant program assisting young people in child protection and youth justice system transition toward independent living. Steps program provides outreach and support to young people experiencing homelessness through practical support, including advocacy, referral and material aid.
