Our EPIC teams in Grafton and Yamba know what it takes to help people with disability find jobs they love. Each year we help thousands of people find and maintain employment across our disability employment services along the east coast of Australia. We don’t just help people find jobs, we are committed to helping them keep their job.
We provide the Australian Government’s Disability Employment Services (DES) program to job seekers with disability and mental illness in Grafton and Yamba.
“EPIC are helpful and don’t act like a business. They give me a lot of support in finding a job and accessing the service, compared to other service providers. I am given options and information regarding where to find jobs. When it comes to interviews they are more than willing to come along and support me.” – James
