Description
WomenCAN Australia was set up in 2019 to help women get skills and jobs, often having been out of the paid workforce for years providing care to others.
We do this while providing confidence, connections, and peer support through The Placement Circle, in which women walk side-by-side on their path to financial independence.
The genesis of WomenCAN Australia is ingrained unfairness. The barriers of bias and discrimination against women compelled Mikaela Stafrace to set up the organisation after she realised her successful corporate law career had left her needing a fuller sense of purpose.
So she quit her job and started helping other women get jobs.
WomenCAN Australia is surging. Women, often facing difficult circumstances, get free training and guaranteed work. They ‘earn and learn’ at the same time.
Employers get dedicated, reliable, skilled staff. Women needing trades work done get quality, affordable trades work done through our social enterprise.
And the economy and communities get stronger.
The organisation focusses on aged care, childcare, transport, and trades for the moment. But its close connection to communities means it picks up on what’s happening in the labour market early, and so is well-placed to help Australia’s women help fix Australia’s skills shortage.
We have tax-deductible charitable status and are registered with the Australian Charities Not-for-profit Commission, the Australian Taxation Office and Social Traders.
