Anna Biro
CARE COORDINATOR
Over the past six years, she has dedicated her career to the disability sector, commencing as a Disability Employment Consultant with Maxima in Mount Barker and Strathalbyn. In this role, she played a pivotal part in assisting individuals with disabilities in their pursuit of employment.

This firsthand experience allowed her to empathize with individuals facing similar challenges and highlighted the transformative power of progressing into employment to regain confidence and motivation.
During her tenure with Maxima, she obtained a Certificate IV in Mental Health, adding a formal dimension to her experiential understanding of working with individuals with mental health conditions. Beyond formal education, her lifelong exposure to family and friends living with mental health concerns further deepened her understanding and commitment to mental health advocacy.
