In the second half of 2020, CRU, Family Advocacy (NSW) and Imagine More (ACT) started work together on a new three year, ILC project funded by the Department of Social Services, to support high school students with disability and their families to engage with employment.

‘From School to Work’ has been providing information to help students and their families build confidence and explore what work could look like for them and as part of the project, we have facilitated a number of webinars and in-depth workshops - some of these webinar recordings are available below or you can have a look at upcoming events for the most up to date content.

Upcoming Events At CRU

  • CRU regularly holds events of varying sizes across Queensland. These are designed to strategically resource people and organisations as they strive to pursue better lives for people with disabilities.
  • The information contained in the many of the Employment webinars will be the same in Queensland, New South Wales and the ACT. However some of the content delivered will be specific to the state or territory it is presented in to ensure we cover local schemes and issues.
