Life Skills Program

The Life Skills Program aims to improve life skills and outcomes for young people who may be at risk of or currently disengaged from education or employment. The program aims to help them live independently.

The program will take place one day per week for two hours over six weeks. It will be located primarily at Youth Inc in Swan Hill.

Participants will cook and enjoy a meal each week. They will also have discussions around a variety of group-chosen topics. These topics may include:

Financial planning/budgeting
Sexual health
Relationships
Overall health and wellbeing
Local service navigation

If you’re looking for a fun and friendly way to learn to live independently, this is the program for you!
