ACT Women’s Return to Work Grant

Grant Description

The ACT Women’s Return to Work grant provides women who have been out of the workforce for six months or more with up to $1,000 in funding to undertake vocational or accredited training, purchase study resources and work clothing, and receive one-on-one mentoring and employment support, including links to education and training opportunities, job-readiness workshops and tailored return-to-work plans.
