Youth

Young people are central to a thriving Southern Grampians Shire community. They make important contributions to society and enrich our communities.

Council is committed to supporting young people, their health and wellbeing, their meaningful engagement in community life, and their development as they explore future career pathways and fulfillment options. 

Our youth team works to a Youth Policy and a Youth Action Plan - a living document that adapts and shifts to emerging needs in response to an annual review and ongoing engagement with young people, community partners and stakeholders.

Specifically, we aim to:

  • Coordinate, contribute, and support the youth services sector.
  • Increase leadership, and educational and employment opportunities.
  • Engage, advocate, and influence council decisions.
  • Provide access to safe places and experiences.
