INTRODUCING KWOL
Kwol's Contribution to MCCSA and Reconnect
This year, the MCCSA Reconnect program welcomed a new team member, Kwol. He has joined the team to collaborate with Savry in Reconnect. Kwol hails from a South Sudanese cultural background and was born in South Sudan. His family later migrated to Uganda, where he spent a decade of his life. In 2005, Kwol and his family migrated to Australia under a refugee visa, and he subsequently acquired Australian citizenship. Throughout his upbringing, Kwol held a strong passion for helping people. He firmly believes that in every society, there are individuals who are vulnerable, marginalized, and in need of support. This driving force led Kwol to pursue a career in Social Work. He views Social Work as a means to create a positive impact on
the lives of these vulnerable individuals and groups within our society. Kwol places great significance on personal values, as they shape his identity and guide his daily decisions, both on a personal and professional level. Among Kwol's personal values are family, respect, learning, integrity, compassion, generosity, and a commitment to social justice. Kwol has earned a bachelor's degree in Social Work and boasts four years of experience in the field of youth work. In his leisure time, Kwol enjoys activities such as playing board games with friends, camping, fishing, golfing, watch collecting, and listening to music. He also has a keen interest in art, film, food, storytelling, and Horology.
Kwol's profound passion for working with young people, especially those from diverse cultural backgrounds, has made him deeply appreciative of the opportunity provided by MCCSA. He eagerly looks forward to contributing his wealth of experience and expertise in youth work to support young individuals in the Reconnect program. Kwol's vision is to continue the exceptional service delivery for young people that the MCCSA Reconnect program has been providing since its inception. In his new role at MCCSA, he aspires to align his work with MCCSA's mission and values. His aim is to advocate for young people, enabling them to recognise their full potential and the value they bring to their families, communities, and society at large.
