Community workers are the skilled practitioners who work in community services to facilitate the welfare and wellbeing of people and communities.
ACWA is the national body that exists to support these professionals. We work to ensure that their training and skill level meets the expectations of the Australian community.
We work closely with education providers to ensure aspiring community workers have access to high quality training and the public have confidence in the profession.
As a not-for-profit membership organisation, we unite with our members to advocate for better community services. Qualified community workers can join us to demonstrate their professional standing, as well as their commitment to ongoing professional development and ethical services.
