- _Transport Services: _ transporting children/young people to complete daily activities, attend appointments, go to and from school/work and participate in community activities.
- _In Home Support: _ Supporting young people/families in their homes to create unity and work towards a stable placement.
- _Overnight Support: _assisting children/young people and their families to develop and maintain routines in a home-setting.

**Benefits and perks**

Becoming a support worker is an extremely enriching and rewarding experience for individuals who are empathetic toward young people in need and want to give back to their community. In addition to a rewarding sense of emotional wellbeing, the following perks are involved while working with LEAP SS:

- Flexible working conditions.
- An on-call management team for you to contact whenever you need support.

- A current drivers license, (P2 accepted) and access to a clean, road worthy vehicle for transporting children/young people.
