Each year the Centre places at least seven tertiary students studying for careers in professions such as Medicine, Counselling, Naturopathy, Social Work, Nursing and Business Administration. We also provide orientation talks to over 100 students from TAFE colleges and universities.

An important aspect of our work is to raise awareness of the social model of health, health care delivery in an NGO and feminist-based approaches to health care.

Students can apply to have their placement with us, visit with us (to help with an agency visit assignment) or ask for a talk to be given to their class.

Contact us for more information.

If you’re a student and writing an assignment on Leichhardt Women’s Community Health Centre, a lot of the answers to your questions will be on this website on the about us page and in the most recent annual report
