In this episode I speak with Richa, who came to Australia as an International Student in 2017 and completed a Masters of Social Work (Qualifying) from Western Sydney University in 2019. After completing her final social work placement, Richa began working at Settlement Services International as a Community Hub leader. She moved into the NSW Department of Education as a Community Liaison Officer in Westmead Public School, working with newly arrived culturally and linguistically diverse families to adjust to a new country through a wide range of programs. She provides casual tutoring at Western Sydney University and supervises social work students during their placements as well. Currently Richa works at Feros Care as a Community Development Coordinator leading community capacity building projects in partnership with local stakeholders, NDIS, and people with disabilities.
