Apply for STREAT's program

STREAT is a new youth-focused social enterprise running outdoor street cafe's in Melbourne’s CBD. If you’re interested in kick-starting your career in hospitality, we want to hear from you.

The program

The STREAT program targets young people 16-25 years of age who are disadvantaged, have been homeless or are at risk of being homeless. We’re offering a six-month training and employment program which includes:

• Training: An accredited Certificate II in Hospitality delivered in months 1-3 of the program. This is delivered in partnership with the William Angliss Institute. You will get practical work experience in our street cafe at Fed Square in the first three months of participating in the program.

• Paid employment: Real on-the-job paid employment for months 3-6 of the program. This is not only a great opportunity to start earning a wage but also kick-start your CV with real industry experience. STREAT, in conjunction with Jobs Services Australia, will also work to transition you into longer-term employment in the hospitality industry once you have completed the program.

• Social support: Ongoing support including individualised case management, group support, social and recreational activities, creative program, life and professional skills. The social support component will happen throughout the six months that you are part of the STREAT program.

STREAT is now accepting applications for the second class of trainees.
