Bendigo resident Kassey was struggling to find work until she met her local Jobs Victoria Advocate, Maria outside the supermarket.

Kassey in her new role

Maria helped Kassey identify what sort of job she wanted and how she could apply the skills she already had. She also connected her with extra training in disability support.

Kassey is now very happily working at Victorian Specialist Support Services. She loves bringing joy to others’ lives every day!
