Our Youth Services

Our youth services support young people to be safe, happy and strong and become leaders through cultural knowledge and strength.

About our Youth Services

We are supporting Maningrida young people to grow strong, stay connected and shape their futures.

Funded through the National Indigenous Australians Agency’s Youth Wellbeing Program, our Youth Services are all about supporting and empowering young people. We operate the Maningrida Youth Centre, delivering daily activities, holiday programs, youth leadership opportunities, workshops and one-on-one support.

Since December 2023, we have been running vibrant and well-attended School Holiday Programs in collaboration with local agencies - creating safe, fun spaces for young people to connect and thrive. Outside of the holidays, our after-school drop-in program at the Youth Centre continues to be a regular hub of activity and support.

Looking ahead, our focus over the next two years is on expanding programs that support long-term personal pathways - building stronger education outcomes, developing practical skills, and increasing job readiness for our youth.
