Hearing directly from young people
Tuesday, 24 August 2010 08:48

As part of Mission Australia's research into what young people are concerned about, they also released this paper, Hearing Directly from Young Australians.

This publication focuses on the responses of three more vulnerable groups of young people – those who were homeless, inout-of-home care, or involved in the juvenile justice system. Young people who are homeless, in out-of-home care or in juvenile justice can be vulnerable in a number of areas which are fundamental to wellbeing, including meaningful relationships, educational achievement, secure housing, physical and mental wellbeing and financial security. This publication provides background on these young people, hears directly from them and makes some policy recommendations for enhancing their wellbeing.  Download the report here.
