At Anglicare Victoria our focus is on transforming the futures of children and young people, families and adults. Our work is based on three guiding pillars, Prevent, Protect, Empower. We offer a comprehensive network of services and seek to ensure the provision of high quality services that will bring about significant improvements in the life experience of the young people, children and families/caregivers with whom we work.
Anglicare Victoria are the state’s largest provider of Out Of Home Care services and, with the support of a large network of passionate and dedicated staff, provide safe and nurturing homes to young people from a variety of backgrounds. We strive to create an environment where employees feel valued and rewarded, making Anglicare Victoria a great place to work.
ICMS focuses on the provision of intensive support to young people with complex needs for whom less 'assertive' case management practice either has not previously worked or is considered unlikely to be effective.
You will adopt a proactive approach to case management, involving a high level of contact with the young person, with a focus on developing a strong relationship, strong participation in decision making and, where appropriate, collaboration with family members and significant others.
The overall aim of the program is to reduce high risk behaviour and increase stability in the life of the young person. Strategies are used to develop resilience and protective behaviours, increase involvement in activities which are meaningful for the young person and enhance self-esteem and life skills.
To be successful in this role you will need:
Please Note: It is mandatory for the successful applicant to hold a current Victorian Drivers Licence, a Working with Children Check and be prepared to undergo a National Criminal History Check prior to commencement.
