2020 wasn't what we expected! In this blog we provide the many ways in which we have adapted such as staff connection online, online programs, creating programs in WA as well as preparing a Covid-management plan. We can't wait to be exploring our backyard in WA with everyone and finding a safe way to interact and remain a positive community.
At AdventureWorks WA we support 'Raising Gutsy Girls' through our Rite of Passage program for schools. In this, we support young women to have courage in the face of challenge.
