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.
