Empowered youth are the driving force behind positive change.

The mission of Young Leaders Youth Services is to empower young people to become confident, capable, and responsible leaders within their communities. Through tailored mentoring, education, and leadership development, we provide dedicated support to help youth overcome challenges, build resilience, and reach their full potential. We focus on fostering life skills, encouraging community involvement, and promoting positive, meaningful change. By building self-esteem and equipping young people with the tools they need to thrive, we aim to lay a strong foundation for them to grow into well-rounded individuals and future leaders.

At Young Leaders Youth Services, our vision is to create lasting, positive change by reducing youth homelessness, addressing trauma-driven behaviours, supporting young people involved in the justice system, and delivering holistic, empowering services. We aim to break the cycle of homelessness by providing tailored supports, safe spaces, and pathways to independence. Through trauma-informed care and emotional support, we help young people heal and grow beyond pain-based behaviours. For those in the justice system, we offer alternatives to incarceration, focusing on rehabilitation, skill-building, and meaningful connection. Our services address the full spectrum of a young person's needs, physical, emotional, educational, and social, ensuring they are supported in every aspect of life. By prioritising early intervention and working closely with community partners, we strive to foster resilience and help young people build strong, purpose-driven futures.

At Young Leaders Youth Services, our outcomes reflect a deep commitment to creating real, measurable impact in the lives of young people. We work to empower at-risk youth and support them in reaching their full potential by focusing on reducing youth homelessness through access to safe, stable housing, improving mental and emotional well-being with trauma-informed care, and increasing educational engagement and achievement. We foster leadership by encouraging youth to take on positive roles in their communities, while also reducing involvement in the justice system through early intervention and mentorship. By building essential life skills like communication, financial literacy, and job readiness, we help young people transition confidently into adulthood, equipped, empowered, and inspired to succeed.
