Learn to Drive Program
As a newly arrived refugee, I know that getting my driver’s licence would free me to get to job interviews, English classes and cultural activities while also getting my grandmother to her doctor’s appointments. But learning to drive is expensive.
Your donation to ADS’s Learn to Drive Program would give me:
• subsidised driving instructor hours
• access to volunteer driving mentors
• an ADS vehicle for supervised practice, and
• a TAFE course on road rules and safety
Please DONATE to help migrants and refugees like me gain the keys to freedom.
Domestic and Family Violence
Family and Domestic Violence is not OK – and we’ve heard many stories like Rana’s …
‘My husband kept me isolated from the community and subjected me to physical, psychological and financial abuse. His extended family harassed me too. It was horrible. I escaped but felt scared of the police and of experiencing further trauma if I reported my husband’s violence. Emergency vouchers from ADS supported me at my greatest hour of need, when I was ineligible for income support and extremely vulnerable. Thanks to ADS, I now live independently and have a full-time job. I feel empowered and safe.’
Your DONATION helps ADS to assist people like Rana to live a new life, violence-free.
