About Us
Our vision is of a strong, fair inclusive and engaged com-
munity. A community where everyone understands and
can exercise their rights and
responsibilities and where they are able to access the re-
sources, networks and support they need to realise their
aspirations.
What we do
Education Programs
These range from pre-accredited skill development to nationally
accredited and recognised certificated courses. We specialise in
beginners’ and intermediate English as an Additional Language.
Community and Refugee Support
We provide referral and support services to refugees and other
community members so that those facing barriers to successful
settlement and social inclusion can establish themselves in their
new environment and use their skills and strengths to meet their
own needs and achieve their aspirations.
Youth Programs
Our youth programs provide a creative, safe learning environment
for young people from diverse backgrounds. We encourage them
to build their skills and confidence by exploring their own ideas and
creativity, particularly through technology, music and the arts.
Community Engagement and Empowerment Programs
We open doors in the community by providing a welcoming envi-
ronment where people can make new friends. People who come to
the Fitzroy Learning Network interact with and support each other,
and have access to learning, skills development and other practical
support. Community participation builds social connections and
networks and helps create a stronger and more inclusive society.
Our volunteering program builds bridges and forges a sense of
community through involvement in the delivery of our services and
programmes.
