About Connect

Connect (connectact.org.au) is an online directory of services for young people aged roughly 12–25 in Canberra and the surrounding region: Queanbeyan, Bungendore, Yass and Goulburn. It covers health, housing, mental health, identity and community, education and employment, legal support, recreation and more.

It's published by the Youth Coalition of the ACT, the peak body representing the interests of young people in the ACT and the sector that works with them.

Who it's for

Young people, families, and the youth workers who support them: anyone looking for the right service at the right time.

Keeping it accurate

Services change. If you spot something out of date, or know of a service that should be listed, please let us know. Every submission is reviewed by our team before it goes live, which keeps the directory accurate and safe.

In an emergency

If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 000. For 24/7 crisis support, call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or Kids Helpline on 1800 55 1800.
