Settlement Engagement and Transition Support (SETS)
The goal of the Settlement Engagement Transition Support Program (SETS) is to support and empower people who arrived as refugee or with an eligible family visa to address their settlement needs in order to improve social participation, economic well-being, independence, personal well-being and community connectedness. This program is funded by our long-standing partner SSI.
MCCGC has a team of dedicated Settlement Caseworkers and Language Support Workers who can assist with:
- Providing settlement-related information, advice, and advocacy
- Connecting with mainstream and other relevant services
- Accessing culturally appropriate physical and mental health services
- Supporting vulnerable women at risk
- Developing English language skills
- Engaging with education and training
- Building employment readiness
- Youth engagement activities and future planning

Kind words from our SETS clients
“I have been playing with MCCGC program Ready Set Goal for three years and have learned a lot about respect and skills on and off the field. When we are out of the field, Miss Koren Hannah helps people find jobs and study for their driving tests. For me, the program of Koren has been something great.”

I hope you will continue working to help people like us as you know it's really hard to come from different background and start a new life in an educated country like Australia.
