Project Youth's vision is to create a future where all young people can thrive regardless of the disadvantage they face. To do this Project Youth provide trauma-informed support for young people aged 12-24 who have complex needs, are at risk, come from disadvantaged backgrounds and would not be able to fulfil their potential without additional support.

Early Intervention: Intervening early to reduce and stop escalation of issues 3. Education, Employment and Training: Providing pathways to employment and education through our 2 social enterprises, Cafe Y and Labour Y Project Youth is a Public Benevolent Institution and Deductible Gift Recipient which means that donations of $2 or more are tax deductible.
