WHAT IS ParentsNext?

Our ParentsNext program assists parents who are looking to return to or enter the workforce. Our team works with you to build confidence and feel empowered to begin employment. We’ll help you to develop a Job Plan to gain the skills you need to be ready for work by the time your youngest child reaches school-age. Our ParentsNext sites in the Logan, Queensland region are child friendly and we can also provide outreach services on request.

HOW WE HELP

Our program can provide a range of supports including:

  • Access to local community services to help address other barriers
  • Regular motivational coaching sessions and check-ins
  • Employability skills and industry-specific training
  • Pre-employment training and formal qualifications
  • Culturally-sensitive services for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and parents from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
