Success Works Partners

Success Works is proud to be part of the KWOOP community of practice that was launched at the NSW parliamentary breakfast on March 19, 2025. Our very own Kat Armstrong presented a KWOOP Appreciation and Dedication Award to the Hon. Elizabeth Evatt AC, who has over 7 decades of being an influential and inspiring woman, including being appointed as the first woman Chief Justice of the Family Law Court of Australia in 1975.

Elizabeth Evatt AC.

Once contact has been made with the criminal justice system, many become caught in a cycle of incarceration that is difficult to break. Especially for First Nations communities, a lack of adequate support further establishes inequalities, perpetuates economic and social exclusion, and compounds the loss of purpose, family, and culture [Australia’s Criminal Justice System, 2021]. Success Works advocates for health equality as a fundamental right for all and strives to support women trying to break the cycle. National Close the Gap Day calls for all Australians to advocate for health equity and take meaningful action to create more nurturing conditions for First Nations Peoples in all spaces.

International Women's Day 2025: Marching Forward Together This year, we stand proudly with the movement to empower women to March Forward. At Pinsent Masons Lawyers Gateway Tower in Sydney, Success Works Board member Eleni and staff member Natascha shared their personal journeys, shedding light on the transformative work Success Works is doing to break down barriers and create lasting opportunities for women. We also engaged in critical conversations around addressing record checks, risk management procedures, and the importance of inclusive hiring practices. These discussions are vital in removing obstacles and paving the way for more women to succeed. Together, we are not just imagining a more inclusive future—we are actively building it.

Happy International Women's Day! 👩 It's time to turn promises into progress with everyone moving together towards a gender equal world, free from bias and discrimination. Women worldwide should be celebrated and valued for all they are and do! So cheers to ending prejudice in all spaces and progressing towards a supportive and flourishing future 🤝

We’re thrilled to announce that Success Works has received further funding from the Judith Neilson Foundation! This support will help us expand our program and continue empowering individuals to rebuild their lives.   One of those inspiring individuals is Marie who transformed her life after facing the challenge of a criminal record that made finding work feel impossible. After connecting with Success Works in October 2023, she gained the confidence and skills to see a future where her past no longer held power over her. Marie has now been thriving in her job for over a year and continues to rebuild her confidence every day.   We’re so grateful for the Judith Neilson Foundation’s continued support!
