What is it and what do we offer?

The Personal Support Programme (PSP) is a Commonwealth Government funded service that can offer:

• Support to formulate strategies and your life's new directions 
• Guidance and encouragement
• Counselling & Personal Support 
• Building of self-esteem & confidence 
• Information about community services and courses
• Referral to, other services in the community with advocacy
• Assistance with accessing education courses, employment services, accommodation and other community resources
• Practical support, such as assisting you to attend interviews or accessing other services
• We offer you our understanding and support to overcome the issues that keep you from achieving your goals
• Assessment of your skills and the difficulties you face to help you plan your goals and any future directions you may wish to explore

Our staff are experienced in working with people who have difficulty getting work because of a range of issues. The Personal Support Programme seeks to bridge gaps you face between crisis assistance and employment related programs. We can help you access other services as part of the support we provide. Most importantly, we are welcoming, supportive and interested in you.

How do I get involved?

To access the Personal Support Programme, speak with Centrelink and ask to be referred to the SkillsPlus Personal Support Programme. This is a free program.

SkillsPlus offers PSP services at our Frankston, Rosebud, Dandenong and Moorabbin offices.
