(1) DCSS Australia is established to be a charity whose purpose is to advance social or public welfare by providing:
(a) a free service to assist people experiencing acute financial hardship, homelessness, mental or intellectual disability, disorder or illness, drug or alcohol addiction, or family violence (“hardship”) by sponsoring them to participate in the Work Development Permit Scheme (VIC) and Work Development Order Program (NSW) and;

(b) support and assistance to people experiencing hardship to enable them to access resources, skill training programs and volunteering opportunities in order to develop new skills and work off their fine debts as issued by the Victorian Department of Justice and Regulation and / or the NSW Revenue Department.
The Work Development Permit Scheme (VIC) and Work Development Order Program (NSW) are programs that enable people experiencing hardship with limited capacity to pay their fine debt to work off the debt by participating in prescribed activities and treatment.

These programs require any participant to be supervised by a sponsor, and DCSS Australia is accredited by both Victorian Department of Justice and Regulation and the NSW Revenue Department to supervise participants.
