Northside Youth Engagement programs and services support young people aged 12 to 25, who live and play in the Inner North and Gungahlin regions of the ACT, with outreach extending to the broader Canberra community. We value meaningful engagement through community building and partnership, and goal-based case work alongside young people to achieve immediate and short-term goals, needs and interests. We ensure our programs and services create spaces where young people feel heard, seen, and supported:
- Gunners Place Drop-in
- Case Work with Young Person
- School Holiday Programs
- THRIVE Program – a Confidence and Wellbeing Program
All our services are free and voluntary.
