Youth Leadership Programs

Learning Leadership Skills

If you are aged 12 to 24 and come from a multicultural or Indigenous background, then our Leadership Program is for you. It’s all about building confidence and resilience and learning leadership skills you can use every day.

We cover a range of topics and aim to help you

  • understand and improve your interpersonal communication skills
  • be a good problem-solver
  • understand emotional intelligence and increase your self-awareness
  • be able to resolve conflict in a non-violent way
  • know how to navigate any racial and religious intolerance that you may experience

To keep things practical, we use skill-based sessions and employ interactive games and team-building activities. We also provide some excursions to allow you to learn and adapt to different environments and contexts.

You also have the opportunity to participate in some community service activities, such as assisting with community events, attending youth forums and events run by other service providers.

This program is part of the Communities for Children project, facilitated by The Smith Family and is funded by the Department of Social Service.

Locations
