Transition Coach – Home Stretch WA
Home Stretch WA is transforming what it means for young people to leave Out of Home Care. Instead of facing adulthood alone at eighteen, young people aged seventeen to twenty-one are supported, encouraged and championed as they build their futures. As a Transition Coach, you become one of the steady and trusted adults walking beside them during one of the most important transitions of their lives.
You will meet young people where they are in their homes, in the community and at district offices. You will offer practical support, genuine connection and a belief in their potential. Every conversation, every visit and every moment of encouragement matters.
You will be joining a large, passionate and collaborative team that values each other deeply. It is a workplace where people feel supported, where ideas are shared freely and where the wins, both big and small, are celebrated together. If you thrive in a positive team culture and want your work to have real impact, this is a place where you will feel at home.
This is a full time, Monday to Friday outreach role based in Morley. Pay is in accordance with SCHADS Level 4.
As a Transition Coach, you will walk alongside young people as they move toward independence. You will provide one to one coaching, mentoring and case coordination that helps them build confidence, skills and strong support networks. You will support young people to stay connected to culture, country, family and community. You will help them access safe housing, education, training, employment and meaningful participation in their communities.
You will work collaboratively with Child Protection staff, carers, kin, community members and other key stakeholders. Your practice will be trauma informed, culturally safe and strengths based. You will ensure young people’s voices shape their plans and goals.
This role is primarily outreach based and may include home visits, in reach to hospitals, detention centres and regular co location at Child Protection District Offices.
