Victorian Youth Strategy: Have Your Say
The Victorian Government is developing a new, state-wide, youth strategy to make our state the best place to be for young people.
Their communication states:
“We are committed to creating a Victoria where all young people are healthy and safe, and empowered to contribute to the issues that affect them. We want every single young person to have equitable access to opportunities and support to participate fully in social, economic and civic life in our state.
A new youth strategy for Victoria will give young people, organisations and the broader community opportunities to direct Government’s work in the youth space now and into the future.
We want to engage with young people and communities that will create real, meaningful change.”
