Parent Pathways

As a Parent Pathways provider, UnitingSA is committed to helping parents and carers of young children to achieve their personal, study and work goals.

How does Parent Pathways work?
Parent Pathways is a voluntary support program designed to help you achieve your goals while balancing your family life. A qualified Mentor will work with you to develop a Goal Plan and meet with you regularly to work towards your goals. We understand everyone’s circumstances are different and your Mentor will provide personalised, flexible support to meet your needs.

How can Parent Pathways help me?
Your Mentor can help you to:

  • Identify your education and employment goals
  • Access financial support to achieve your goals (e.g. to meet the costs of training, text books, transport, or to purchase a computer)
  • Overcome barriers to education and employment
  • Connect to diverse local services and networks
  • Access language or literacy programs
  • Access child care and meet child care costs
  • Complete further education or training
  • Obtain and maintain employment

Our locations

Our offices are easy to locate and have parking available. They’re also close to public transport and local services, including Centrelink, Housing SA, health services and shopping centres.

We have relaxed, family-friendly spaces with toys and activities available if you’d like to bring your children to appointments.

Computers with internet access are available for you to use at our permanent site locations.

We also offer outreach services at location hubs closer to you, so please speak to one of our Mentors.

“I was feeling depressed and anxious before coming to Taperoo Community Centre and now I feel as though I belong for the first time in my life. The classes have helped me believe in myself and that I am capable of learning.”
