About the Program

The EASE program diverts victim-survivors from crisis homelessness systems through community development and engagement opportunities and earlier intervention case management.

The Role

As a Case Manager, you will play a vital role in delivering high-quality, trauma-informed case management services to victim-survivors across the Limestone Coast region. Working within approved Case Management Guidelines, you will provide face-to-face, community-based early intervention support that is flexible, responsive, and tailored to the unique needs of individuals from diverse backgrounds and circumstances.

In this role, you will empower victim-survivors to enhance their safety, wellbeing, and overall life outcomes by providing timely support, advocacy, and connections to relevant services and community networks. Your work will focus on early intervention strategies that help prevent the escalation of violence and reduce the need for crisis responses.

You will be part of a collaborative and supportive team, working closely with the Team Leader and Community Development Worker to achieve positive outcomes for victim-survivors and the broader community.

Key Responsibilities

- Provide trauma-informed, strengths-based case management support to victim-survivors.
- Ensure victim-survivors are informed about the support options and services available to them.
- Connect individuals with meaningful community networks, resources, and support services that meet their needs.




- Support victim-survivors to develop and strengthen safety planning and risk management strategies.
- Work collaboratively with colleagues and community stakeholders to achieve program objectives and improve service outcomes.
- Maintain accurate case records and ensure service delivery aligns with program guidelines, organisational policies, and best practice standards.
