Case Management

Case Management

The case managers at WAYS provide practical and intensive support to young people and their families who are either at risk of or who are homeless, who may be experiencing disengagement from education and training, barriers to employment, mental health concerns, family breakdown, social isolation, legal issues and serious offences. All sessions are free and are not limited in number.

Case managers from the WAYS Wellness Centre are approved providers of the Work and Development Orders (WDOs) in NSW.

WDOs are a way to help young people who can’t pay their fines and enables the participant to reduce their fine by up to $1000 a month, by allowing them to participate in unpaid work, courses, counselling, case management or approved treatment programs.

The criteria that young people must meet in order to be eligible is that they must be aged under 18, be receiving a Centrelink or DVA benefit, or have a mental illness, intellectual disability or cognitive impairment, or experiencing serious financial hardship, or are homeless.

WAYS need to agree to support the activity and will apply on the young person’s behalf. Please contact WAYS case managers to see if you will qualify for this program.
