Starting a new life in a new country is a challenge. Young refugees and vulnerable migrants often need extra help and support to become and stay connected in their new community.
Youth Transition Support (YTS) services help young humanitarian entrants and vulnerable migrants aged 15 to 25 take part in work and education.
YTS services:
- improve workplace readiness
- provide access to vocational opportunities
- create strong social connections through education and sports engagement.
Service providers deliver a range of projects and activities for participants. This includes connections with local employment services and jobs, and vocational or other further education opportunities.
The Department is funding YTS services to 30 June 2026.
