Youth Worker

Youth workers are here to provide one-to-one support for youth to identify and reach their personal goals, including employment, housing, mental health, life skills, family & peer relationships, and connecting to resources. Click here for more information on youth workers and what they do.

Youth can drop in and visit a youth worker during our Youth Space open hours, or do a referral for one-to-one support. The referral can be done by youth directly, as well as parents, caregivers, school staff and others, where youth are aware a referral is being made.
