Young people
Youthfind
Using our partnerships with TAFE Directors Australia, Australia’s largest training organisations, labour hire companies, employers, community organisations and education partners we provide relevant, useful and appropriate workshops, training, upskilling and work opportunities to create long-term career paths.
The facts
Youth unemployment is currently around 2 x higher than the national average, and around 10.2% of our young people are unable to find work. Youth unemployment can damage long-term job prospects, put additional pressure on families, generate social exclusion, and adversely affect mental well-being.
To break this cycle, we engage with young people in all areas of their life to support, nurture and develop them in meaningful ways – with families, peer groups, friends and through community engagement.
