We believe in respect and support diversity

Respecting and supporting personal culture, cultural safety and cultural diversity, including age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, people from LGBTIQA+ communities, Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) people, Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islanders, and people with a disability, is inherent in Jesuit Social Services’ Vision and our way of working.

Jesuit Social Services is committed to providing a working environment that embraces and values diversity and inclusion.
