That’s why our care workers at Diversity Community Services Pty Ltd work closely with participants, families, and support coordinators to build tailored life skills plans. These plans are developed after thorough assessments and conversations that identify strengths, challenges, and aspirations.

We use real-life scenarios to practice and reinforce learning. Whether the goal is to move towards independent living, build healthy routines, or gain confidence in social settings, we help participants take meaningful steps forward.
