Casework
BGF Caseworkers are masters at getting people back on their feet, with a particular focus on financial assistance.
They work with every person we support to create a bespoke plan based on the services that BGF provides, and to secure them any additional services they require.
Caseworkers help people in a number of ways, including but not limited to:
- Direct practical, financial assistance with a focus on medical support including medications and treatments
- No Interest Loans through Good Shepherd Microfinance which allow people we support to affordably finance the everyday necessities of life
- Return to study and employment initiatives
- Support letters and advocacy
- Budgeting
- Outreach support
Please note that currently, BGF is based in NSW and SA only. But with the generosity of our supporters, we hope to expand our reach even further.
