Jack Kruger, Julia Shumaker, James Jeffress, Rachael Cumming

In this presentation, Jack Kruger shared the various work roles he’s held since he was 14. He described his current position at Unilodge, where he works at the reception of a residential college at ANU. He also describes his volunteering role at Lifeline.

Julia Shumaker, Jack’s Job Support, described how she applied Customised Employment principles to create a volunteering role for him at Lifeline. She explains how her support role at Lifeline has now completely faded. Her experience with Lifeline gave her the confidence to apply the same principles to develop and support Jack in his current paid work role at Unilodge.

James and Rachael, Jack’s work supervisors at Unilodge, provided an overview of their involvement in customising and supporting Jack in the Unilodge workplace.
