Youth
At Spectrum, we understand the unique needs of young people and create opportunities for connection, growth, and community engagement.
Our Youth Services team supports young people aged 12 to 25 from migrant and refugee backgrounds, through a range of programs and activities.
We invite you to explore our programs and connect with our friendly Youth Workers at any of our offices. We’re here to support you on your journey.

Staying safe
Staying Safe in a New Culture: a Guide for Young Refugees and Migrants is a resource for young migrants and refugees, co-developed with participants from Spectrum’s Pathways to Resilience project. It provides information about consent, mental health, and cyber safety, and includes useful contacts for services and supports.
Stay connected
Our youth programs help young migrants and refugees feel welcome and connected in their new community.
We run fun activities like sports, art, and group events where young people can make friends and build confidence.
These activities help young people feel connected and ready for their future.
