CTC Youth Services: Youth Connections

What is Youth Connections?

Youth Connections is funded by the Commonwealth of Australia as represented by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations.
Youth Connections provides a service for young people who have disengaged or are at risk of disengaging from education or training. Youth Connections will support clients to attain a Year 12 education or equivalent and to then make a successful transition to further study, training or work.
