CatholicCare Tasmania - 26Ten Grant

CatholicCare Tasmania's story

With their 26Ten Workplace Grant, CatholicCare Tasmania employed an Adult Literacy Trainer to work with their Out of Home Care team. This provided their employees with the opportunity to improve their literacy and numeracy skills through a program that was designed specifically for them, and delivered in collaboration with Work & Training.

TasWater - Get it Written Project

TasWater's 26Ten Workplace Grant project, Get it Written, raised awareness of the need for literacy skills across all levels of the workforce, raised the confidence and lifted the aspirations of workers with low literacy, and built team support amongst people working with those individuals.

Acknowledgement of Country

26Ten recognises the deep histories and cultures of the Aboriginal people of Lutruwita/Tasmania, the land’s first storytellers. We acknowledge Tasmanian Aboriginal people as the traditional and continuing custodians of the land, waters and sky. We pay respect to the Elders, past and present, who hold the memories, traditions, culture and knowledge of Country. We extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, whose Countries were never ceded.
