JOBS Victoria Advocates will set up shop in Frankston in a bid to connect unemployed people with work.
The program is funded by the state government. It is now running from Frankston Library and local community centres.
The first drop in event will be at Frankston Library, 60 Playne Street, on Wednesday 7 July from 10am to 1pm.
Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke said “this important partnership between council, the Victorian Government and key organisations places Jobs Victoria Advocates in Frankston community spaces where they will offer face-to-face support to job seekers. Jobs Advocates will provide tailored, personalised support to ensure nobody in our community is left behind in the recovery from COVID-19.”
Frankston mayor Kris Bolam said “Jobs Victoria Advocates will be working throughout the Frankston community, to offer practical, face to face support to jobseekers, people seeking a career change, or advice for training pathways. Jobs Victoria Advocates will help people to navigate employment and training services via proactive outreach, connecting with people in libraries, community centres, public housing foyers, shopping centres and other public spaces.”
