At jupiter – space to talk, we would like to extend our sincere appreciation to the Youth Action Meetings (YAMs) program and our dedicated local YAMs Coordinator, Ben Lilas, for the incredible work they do to support young people across Port Stephens 💛

YAMs is a collaborative, police-led initiative that brings together local services, government agencies, and community organisations to support young people who may be at risk of offending or becoming victims of crime. Through regular meetings, agencies work together to develop tailored support plans that connect young people with the right services, opportunities, and community supports to help them thrive.

At the heart of this important work is Ben, who consistently goes above and beyond to advocate for young people, build meaningful connections between services, and ensure that young people receive the support they need to overcome challenges and achieve their goals.

The collaborative approach of YAMs helps strengthen community connections, reduce barriers to support, and create better outcomes for young people and their families. It is a powerful example of what can be achieved when services come together with a shared goal of supporting young people to reach their full potential.

Thank you, Ben, for your unwavering dedication, leadership, and belief in the young people of Port Stephens. We are grateful for the positive impact you make every day and for the strong partnerships you foster within our community.

👏 Thank you to YAMs and Ben Lilas for helping create brighter futures for young people throughout Port Stephens.

💙 Recognising an Incredible Community Partner 💙

Recently, we had the pleasure of presenting Our Gym Nelson Bay with a plaque of appreciation in recognition of their ongoing support of the Jupiter Recreation and Wellbeing Program.

OUR Gym has been an amazing supporter of our young people, providing a welcoming and inclusive space where participants can improve both their physical and mental wellbeing. Their commitment to community and youth wellbeing has helped make a real difference in the lives of many young people across Port Stephens.

The Jupiter Recreation and Wellbeing Program supports young people aged 12–25 through a unique combination of counselling, movement, exercise, healthy lifestyle education, and goal-focused support. By combining physical activity with therapeutic support, the program helps young people build confidence, resilience, positive coping strategies, and a sense of belonging.

For many participants, the gym becomes more than just a place to exercise—it becomes a safe space to connect, grow, challenge themselves, and work towards their goals in a supportive environment.

We are incredibly grateful to the team at Our Gym Nelson Bay nelson for their generosity, encouragement, and belief in the potential of young people. Partnerships like this help us continue creating opportunities for young people to thrive.

Thank you for being such a valued part of the Jupiter community and for helping us support the wellbeing of local young people. 🌟

A huge thank you to the team at for inviting jupiter – space to talk to be part of the BRICC (Building Resilient and Inclusive Communities through Creativity) experience this week.

It was incredible to see young people come together through creativity, connection, and self-expression in such a welcoming and supportive environment. Programs like BRICC provide valuable opportunities for young people to build confidence, develop new skills, strengthen social connections, and contribute positively to their community.

We are grateful to have shared in this experience and to witness the impact that creative wellbeing programs can have on the lives of young people.

Thank you to everyone involved for creating a space where young people can feel seen, heard, included, and empowered. We look forward to seeing the amazing murals and lasting connections that come from this fantastic initiative.

💙 Celebrating Our Incredible Volunteers 💙

This week we had the pleasure of celebrating our amazing volunteers with a special morning tea, generously donated by Ausgrid.

Our volunteers give their time to support fundraising, administration, community events, and the many behind-the-scenes tasks that help keep Jupiter running. Their dedication allows us to keep costs low and ensure that as much funding as possible from grants and donations goes directly into providing free and confidential counselling and wellbeing support for young people in our community.

The difference our volunteers make cannot be overstated. Their generosity, commitment, and belief in young people help make our service possible.

Thank you to every volunteer who supports jupiter! We are so grateful for everything you do. 💙
