As we continue the countdown to the 2026 WA Youth Work Awards, weβre celebrating another of the Platinum Sponsors supporting this yearβs event.
π Mission Australia
Mission Australia provides a broad range of services that support vulnerable young people across Western Australia to achieve safe, healthy and independent lives. The organisation works with young people experiencing or at risk of homelessness, family breakdown, mental health challenges, alcohol and other drug issues, disengagement from education, unemployment, and family and domestic violence.
Through programs such as youth accommodation and support services, alcohol and drug education and recovery programs, counselling, case management and early intervention programs, Mission Australia helps young people build resilience, strengthen relationships and develop the skills needed for long-term stability and wellbeing.
Mission Australia also partners with Aboriginal organisations and local communities to deliver culturally safe, community-led responses that improve outcomes for Aboriginal young people and their families. In addition to direct service delivery, the organisation advocates for greater investment in early intervention, affordable housing, mental health support and youth-focused services to prevent homelessness and improve life opportunities for young people.
Across WA, this includes services such as YouthBeat, Youth Accommodation Support Services (YASS), Open Doors Mirrabooka, Home Stretch, DAYS, SHIFT and YPOP, as well as regional family support and family and domestic violence services.
