It is through the support of our community, our members and our volunteers that CARAD has been able to impact the lives of more than 5000 asylum seekers and refugees in Western Australia.
CARAD empowers people to become advocates in their own community in a number of ways:
Educational Speakers
CARAD can provide educational speakers to schools, professional events, mosques, churches and community gatherings, to highlight our work, the issues facing those we support and ways to help.
Our speakers can share about topics such as:
• Facts and myths about asylum seekers and refugees
• Current Australian policies which affect asylum seekers and refugees
• Challenges faced by asylum seekers and refugees in Australia
• Client Stories
• Ways in which your group can help asylum seekers and refugees

“The past few years have been a difficult journey for us, with many
obstacles and uncertainties. But with CARAD’s support, we were
able to overcome these challenges and find hope for a better
future. After eight years of waiting, the good news of our PR finally
came and removed all the fears and darkness in our lives.
I truly believe that with a positive attitude and the support of
organizations like CARAD, we can create a better life for ourselves
and our loved ones. Thank you for being a shining light during a
difficult time.’”
