You don’t have to face challenges alone. Whether you’re having problems at home, school, or with housing, we’re here to listen and help.

For Parents and Carers

We understand family relationships can be challenging, especially when adjusting to a new culture. Our service aims to improve communication within families and keep young people connected to their family, education, and community.

We work hard to keep our clients connected to their family, school, and community so that they can move successfully into early adulthood and participate fully in life.
