Jolene Aik | Team Leader, Family Services

CatholicCare Victoria is committed to building thriving communities through disrupting the cycle of disadvantage.

The Family Services program at CatholicCare Victoria provides Department of Families, Fairness and Housing funded services to families and children in the community.

The Family Services program provides a continuum of support to families, ranging from supporting them in their parenting role, to working intensively with families under increased pressure.


The Family Services team aims to promote strong families - with children who are safe, healthy, resilient and thriving; and parents and caregivers who are supported to create safe and nurturing home environments.


Specifically, in this role you will be responsible for:

  • Working with the Best Interest Case Practice Framework and the Response Practice Modules and Elements, provide assessment and time limited case practice interventions that lead to improved outcomes for children which include safety and stability within families
  • Using approaches that consider the best interests of the child, trauma informed practices, knowledge of child development, attachment theories, family preservation and reunification principles, and other relevant frameworks.
  • Developing goals, action plans and safety plans with families through direct work with individuals and groups as appropriate
  • Regularly monitoring progress, reviewing interventions and referring to suitable services with the agreement of the family members

To be considered for this position, applicants require:

  • A professional qualification in Social Work, Welfare or other relevant tertiary study
  • Experience working within Child Protection, Family Services or other related experience
  • An understanding of the impacts of trauma on children and adults and approaches for working effectively where trauma is featured
  • As a condition of employment, CatholicCare Victoria as an employer will collect, record and store vaccination information on employees where required in line with the Privacy Act. All CatholicCare Victoria workers are to be fully vaccinated (boosted), unless they are an Excepted Person for medical reasons. All applicants must therefore be able to comply with this requirement. This means that successful applicants will be required to provide evidence of their vaccination status to CatholicCare Victoria prior to commencement of employment._
