SSRV’s Community Legal Education sessions (CLEs) are popular with workers supporting clients experiencing social security issues. Professional development in this area is important because social security is a complex area of law and one that is ever-changing. Centrelink problems often intersect with other issues that people are facing such as family law, family violence, debt, homelessness, health, disability and disasters.
SSRV’s CLE is free, often online, and explains social security law and how it might impact your clients, in plain English. We tell you what to look out for, how to address issues when they arise, and how SSRV can assist.
Our CLE covers a range of common social security issues, including eligibility criteria, what to if you disagree with a Centrelink Decision, and how to challenge a Centrelink Debt.
You can also talk to us about your social security CLE needs and we will look for ways to address your needs.
