Young People

Young people play an important role in shaping our community. In 2021, young people aged 12 to 24 made up 16.1% of the Georges River population.

Our youth services focus on empowerment, meaningful involvement, and inclusion. We want young people to be heard and to take part in decisions that affect them.

We work with local partners to make sure services meet the needs of young people. Together, we support learning, personal growth, and wellbeing. Our programs highlight the positive impact young people make in our community. They build leadership and creativity, and they celebrate inclusion and diversity.
