Careers in the Community Service

If you are interested in improving the lives and circumstances of others, then consider a career in community services. Community workers in this industry provide services, activities, support, information, and referral for those needing assistance. Workers will experience a challenging yet rewarding career, and are passionate about making a difference and helping others. Many workers find their past experiences with drug and alcohol or mental health issues as the key instigator to starting a career in the community services. Jobs can include drug and alcohol workers, community support workers, mental health support workers and counsellors.
