Meet The Team
Naj
Managing Director | Registered Social Worker
I am the managing director of Raven Community Care. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Social Work (2017) and I have been working with the community for the past 10 years, supporting the communities most vulnerable, from Children, Young People, Adults, and the Elderly.
​
I first started my career as a Social Worker supporting vulnerable refugees and Asylum Seekers seeking refuge or Asylum in Australia. In 2017, I embarked on my journey in the Out of Home Care sector supporting the state's most vulnerable young people. While working in Out of Home Care, I held various positions, such as Senior Operations Manager, Therapeutic Manager, and Case Manager/Social Worker. I predominantly supported highly complex young people who were diagnosed with significant disabilities under the Department of Community and Justice's 'Intensive Therapeutic Care' Model.
​
In January 2023, I was employed by Justice Health as a Mental Health Social Worker providing Mental Health Case Management and Counselling Support to high-risk inmates within a Maximum Security Correctional Complex.
​
I look forward to continuing to make a difference in the lives of our community's most vulnerable and showcase the passion me and my team have to offer.
