Reel Connections

Reel Connections is an information and training partnership project led by the City of Stirling. This project aims to help young migrants and Indigenous youth at risk, understand their legal rights, responsibilities and ensure their personal safety.  It will also encourage and support intercultural understanding amoung all young residents and visitors and aim to improve the level of anti-social behaviour and negative perceptions of crime in the Mirrabooka Regional Centre. The program will support young people to pursue alternative pathways to employment and training and to develop the skills and confidence to make informed life style decisions.
