- Helen Keller

【一】福利话题概况：
Introduction:
Australia has a comprehensive social security system, which is mainly delivered through Centrelink, a government agency that delivers social security services for a number of government departments under one roof. Its main services include income support (e.g. Newstart Allowance, carers payment, age pension, disability support pension etc.) but it also delivers other types of support, such as rent assistance.
Topics of discussion in this domain usually relate to the delivery of essential services such as income support, job capacity assessment, aged care services, public housing, disability services early childhood services, child protection services and other community services through councils and funded agencies.
Centrelink是澳大利亚的社会福利机构，为广大澳洲人民提供社会福利和补助（比如：残疾补贴，产妇补贴等等），welfare话题内，主要涉及到的对话可能会有以下主题：工作能力综合测试，养老金，房屋补贴，幼儿补贴，未成年人保护服务以及其他类似社区服务。

需要时常跟进政策、公共服务范围等重要的变更以保证口译员服务的准确性。
