Workplace experiences in Cairns:
Choice and the Aborigines and Torres Strait Islander Youth Welfare Corporation and Kapani have developed relationships with the 3 Workforce Australia providers funded in Cairns to deliver workplace experiences for their registered individuals. These activities will significantly improve the job readiness of the individuals and assist them to transition from poverty and despair and a relationship with Centrelink to the open employment marketplace.
