Our Youth Focus initiative is designed to build our understanding of the priorities of young people and strengthen support for their wellbeing, inclusion and participation.

Young people bring valuable local knowledge, experience and perspectives to the table. Through Youth Focus, we are exploring the issues and opportunities shaping their lives to help ensure their voices are reflected in planning and decision-making.

As part of Phase One, we partnered with the Youth Affairs Council of WA to train a team of young peer researchers who will engage with friends, relatives and peers across the community to gather insights into what matters most to young people connected to Stirling.

Now, we are calling on young people, parents, carers, service providers and the wider community to contribute through an online survey co-designed by our peer researchers. Complete the survey by Sunday 11 October to inform future planning and help strengthen support for young people.
