Youth Connections

Colony 47 Youth Connections works with individual young people in the Glenorchy, Hobart, Kingborough and Huon Valley municipal areas to identify and overcome the barriers to ongoing participation in education and to assist them to improve their health and well being and make positive life choices. Reengagement Plans are developed for each young person, identifying a range of ways in which young people can be provided with the support they need to continue in education. Youth Connections also provides a mobile outreach information centre and supports local communities to provide activities for disengaged young people and link them to other programs and services.

This is an Australian Government initiative.
