When Amelia joined the Youth NDIS Services at Omnia Inclusive in July 2023, her aspiration to work with children was clear, but the path to achieving that dream felt uncertain.
Living with autism and managing high levels of anxiety, Amelia had just completed Year 12. While eager to begin her career, she felt unprepared for the workforce. Seeking guidance, she turned to Omnia Inclusive for support.
Participating in supports for employment and independence, Amelia eagerly developed her interview skills and crafted a standout resume, laying a strong foundation for her future career. Another important goal Amelia wanted to achieve was being able to travel more independently, and through a combination of 1:1 and group support she has achieved this. Being independent with travel has given Amelia the ability to commute to work and has significantly boosted her confidence and independence.
As the team supported Amelia, they discovered her deep love for gymnastics – a passion she had nurtured since childhood. With this insight, they arranged a 9-week work experience placement at Woden Valley Gymnastics Club.
Now thriving at Woden Valley, Amelia views her role as a pivotal step toward her ultimate dream of becoming a Learning Support Assistant. She embraces this opportunity to develop the skills and experience that will support her journey ahead.
Later this year, the Omnia Inclusive team looks forward to connecting Amelia with the Canberra Institute of Technology, providing her with the support she needs to pursue her dream of becoming a Learning Support Assistant.
Amelia’s Mum recently expressed her gratitude to Omnia Inclusive:
Even as she embarks on her new job, Amelia stays actively engaged with Omnia Inclusive, participating in our Social Program. Her key goals include enhancing her communication skills and assertiveness. A significant focus is helping her learn to say ‘No’ confidently, empowering her to establish healthy boundaries, reduce stress, and align her commitments with her values.
Amelia’s journey is a powerful example of her determination and what can be achieved with the right support. With every achievement, she has laid a strong foundation for her future, gaining the confidence and skills needed to pursue her dream of becoming a Learning Support Assistant. As she takes on new challenges, Amelia not only improves her abilities but also inspires those around her. With her love for helping children and growing independence, the future looks bright, and it’s clear that Amelia is on her way to achieving her dreams.
