Hi my name is Matthew, I'm a local Grafton fella. I have worked in Community Services since 2016, after completing my Diploma in Community Services. Since then, I have been a Youth Worker in out of home care. I have managed multiple out of home care houses, with clients being extremely vulnerable, and under the care of the Minister (PR to Minister). I have worked at Mission Australia in Hobart as the Youth Services PM, and I have worked in Child Safety Services for Uniting in Coffs Harbour, alongside The Department of Communities and Justice. I hold a current Working With Children Check, NDIS workers Clearance, and hold a First Aid CPR Certificate. I have worked with some of the most vulnerable, disadvantaged children in the state, and have extensive knowledge when it comes to providing quality care for children.
