About the Organisation

SisterWorks is a not-for-profit social enterprise, with its head office based in Richmond, Melbourne. SisterWorks’ mission is to support women from refugee, migrant and asylum-seeking backgrounds to improve their confidence, mental wellbeing, sense of belonging and economic outlook. SisterWorks does this by providing learning opportunities in a safe environment where Sisters can build their skills and community, and gain both the knowledge and the confidence to seek employment or further study. Our vision is an Australia where all migrant women are given the opportunities to become economically empowered.

The SisterWorks model, 'Work Empowers Women', is centred around empowerment, fostering a sense of independence and providing opportunities for building a community, learning new skills, and earning an income. This is achieved via our Empowerment Hubs in Richmond, Bendigo and Dandenong, as well as through our online learning platform.
