Creating meaningful change

By: yourtown 19 Mar 2015 BoysTown

Australia’s unemployment rate is the highest in a decade, and it’s easy to understand how many young people might give up trying to find a job.

SUPPORT. TRAINING. EMPLOYMENT.

Finding employment is especially tough when you are facing barriers like low literacy and numeracy, homelessness, mental health concerns, drug or gambling problems or social isolation.

BoysTown offers a mix of training, work experience and other interventions to help young people achieve sustainable and meaningful employment and improved life skills.

Young people like Ben.*

I had been unemployed for a long time, that is, until I had an appointment with BoysTown. My employment consultant helped me in many ways to address my barriers and issues to get me job ready. I can’t thank her enough. This is the first job agency that has helped me to get a job. Ben
