Funding secured to deliver Settlement Engagement and Transition (SETS) Program

Care Finder Program

Following a competitive tender process, KLR Communications’ client Advance Diversity Services has successfully secured funding to continue delivery of the Settlement Engagement and Transition Support (SETS) Program on behalf of the Department of Home Affairs.

Advance Diversity Services has been delivering SETS Client Services and Community Capacity Building activities since 2015. Securing more than $2 million in further funding enables the ongoing provision of supports for humanitarian entrants and other eligible vulnerable migrants so they may improve social and economic participation, and community connectedness.

For an additional 3-year period, Advance Diversity Services will provide low and medium-intensity case management and group sessions in support of clients to obtain settlement-related advice, to receive referrals into mainstream services, and to gain assistance to navigate the Australian service system.

Advance Diversity Services will deliver the Program in 4 NSW Statistical Areas (Hurstville, Kogarah-Rockdale, Cronulla-Miranda-Caringbah, and Sutherland-Menai-Heathcote) via team of Multicultural Support Workers with fluency in Mandarin, Cantonese, Arabic, Nepalese, Thai, Bengali, Russian, Ukrainian and more.

“This is the second time that Kathryn and KLR have supported us to prepare a successful tender!  Kathryn helped our internal tender team to prepare and win an important bid to provide services under the Settlement Engagement and Transition Support (SETS) Program. KLR were great to work with. Professional, impactful and cost effective. We will definitely engage their services again in the future!”, said Thanh Nguyen, Manager, Business Development and Quality, Advance Diversity Services.

    Tender success ensures ongoing support for families and children across Sydney

    Care Finder Program

    KLR Communications congratulates our client Weldon Children’s Services on a number of recent and well-deserved tender successes allowing this impressive organisation to continue supporting families and children across Sydney.

    Weldon is a not-for-profit community organisation catering for children from birth to 12 years of age providing early years education and care to families most in need. Services include:

    • before school care, after school care, care on
    • pupil free days during school term; and
    • vacation care during school holidays.

    The KLR team worked with Weldons late last year in a tender process to successfully secure their place as Outside Ordinary School Hours (OOSH) provider at 3 schools across Sydney, ensuring consistency in care for children who have developed strong bonds with their carers.

    “Recently the team successfully assisted Weldon in being re-appointed as OOSH providers in multiple locations by supporting us through an EOI process. They take the time to really understand what the desired outcomes are and what is needed to provide a winning submission,” Deborah Moran – CEO Weldon Children’s Services.

    In addition, KLR worked with Weldons to secure development grants for 5 of their OOSH programs. The Development Grant Program aims to encourage and support projects, initiatives and programs that are designed to increase the viability of an approved service. Through securing important funding, Weldons is now able to further develop their programs, develop the expertise of their educators and obtain exciting new equipment and supplies that promote physical activity and development for children.

    “KLR Communications supported Weldon through a successful grant application process that resulted in Weldon obtaining significant grants for 5 of our Out of School Hours programs. Kathryn and her team are highly professional. I highly recommend engaging [them] to support any organisation going through a tender or grant application process,” Deborah Moran – CEO Weldon Children’s Services.
