Meet the team: Lisa Frattini

Introducing Lisa! She has been working for selectability in the Burdekin region for the last 3 months as a lifestyle support worker and training mentor.

Originally from Warwick in the Darling Downs, Lisa has called the Burdekin home for the last 4 years.

As a part of her role, Lisa supports individuals in gaining qualifications and experience so they can enter the workforce. A role that she thoroughly enjoys.

“I love the fact that every day at selectability is different… The flexibility was the first thing to draw me to the job.” said Lisa.

“It makes me happy that I can make a difference in a person's life and allow them to live a life of their own choice.”

Having worked across many different industries, including a decade as a teacher aide, Lisa is well versed in the role passion plays in a great work ethic, especially when it comes to wellbeing.

“I want to help people to reach their full potential, I know how important it is to support people’s mental wellbeing as I suffer from anxiety. 

“Not everybody has the family support that I have, and I want to be that person for someone else. 

“Mental health and suicide need to be taken seriously, and I feel for people who don’t have the support they need.”

It is consumer and community- focused employees like Lisa that give selectability the right tools to deliver high-quality support and services to regional Queenslanders.
