About this service
The Victoria Disability Resource Centre (VDRC) aims to promote the independence of persons living with all forms of disabilities, and at the heart of this are our wonderful volunteers. The Volunteer Skills Development Program offers a wide range of opportunities for individuals to develop valuable skills and practices that many prospective employers look for in job applicants. This is done by providing volunteers with real-life experiences in a work environment.
The experience of volunteering promotes leadership, addresses life skills training, strengthens self-esteem and, enables persons with disabilities to experience a more independent lifestyle.
