HOPE for Work

One in three participants of our Health Optimisation Program for Employment (HOPE) program has got a job in the six months following the program.

HOPE provides job seekers with tools to manage their mental health while looking for work as well as in those first months at work that can often be the most stressful. Participants are referred by clinical mental health teams, psychiatric disability rehabilitation services and disability employment services.

"Working's good most of the time. Even when I don’t like it, it still gets me out of bed every day. Getting out of bed gets me to the shower. Having a shower gets me dressed and out the door. And then I am at work and I haven’t spent the day in bed."

"I never thought I could work. I always though I would be sick and at hospital and living with mum and dad. Now I have even done a training certificate. I see my friends and we talk about work and clothes and what the stars are doing – you know? We don’t talk about being sick."
