Connections

Helping young people reconnect to education and training

Connections helps young people who face major barriers to staying in school and who have been out of mainstream schooling for more than three months.

This personal development program helps these young people to deal with their personal issues and to increase their life skills, employability skills, self-esteem and resilience.

When they are ready we help them to take the next positive steps such as moving back into school, TAFE, training, an apprenticeship or a job.

What you can do

If you know a young person - aged 13 to 19 - who seems to need some help to re-engage with education, you can recommend them to Connections. Use the map on the right to find the provider nearest you.
