Given the Chance: an evaluation of an employment and education pathways program for refugees
This evaluation of Given the Chance showed that supported mentoring combined with training and work placements can be effective in helping refugees to understand Australian workplace cultures and providing an entrée into employment and/or educational opportunities.
Positive outcomes were achieved through case managing refugees, guiding them into a combination of closely integrated components (mentoring, training and work placements), each one essential to refugee social inclusion.
For some of the most marginalised people in our community this program has been the difference between social exclusion and successful settlement.
