About Vincentcare Victoria

VincentCare Victoria is an award-winning organisation established to provide a range of accommodation and support services to people that are facing disadvantage throughout metropolitan and regional Victoria.

You will work collaboratively with partner agencies to provide holistic, goal-focused case management through an outreach model, supporting young people to access safe housing, education, employment, and specialist services addressing issues such as mental health, substance use, family violence, and justice involvement.
