The essence of our organisation is summed up in its name – Empower. Our primary purpose is to empower marginalized and at-risk individuals to build positive relationships, capitalize on employment opportunities and attain job stability – assisting them in becoming productive contributors to society.

Empower’s programs are focused on the value of community wraparound and the family unit, emphasising team-based care and collaboration. Aware that many at-risk individuals are trapped in a cycle of isolation and negative behavior patterns, our programs are highly relational and community-based. This enables the individual to build trust in a safe and consistent environment as he or she navigates the process of establishing new and healthy behavior patterns.

The Empower team is volunteer-driven, highly collaborative and diverse. Drawing on the wide range of knowledge and skillsets available to us, Empower also provides practical training and upskilling, giving individuals the tools they need to capitalize on opportunities that arise.

Empower is an Australian public company that is registered as a charity with the Australian Charities and Not-for-Profits Commission. Empower is endorsed as a Deductible Gift Recipient.

All corporate sponsorship funds are directed to Empower to support program delivery to marginalized and at-risk members of the community.
