Brimbank Youth Services (BYS) works with young people aged 10-25 to give a voice to the concerns and opportunities that are important to Brimbank youth. We value, celebrate and respect young people and the contributions they make to Brimbank and beyond.
The world is changing rapidly and young people face challenges and opportunities strikingly different to those of the generations before them. Globalisation, new technologies, changing labour markets and climate impacts are some of the issues facing young people today.
Visit the BYS website for all the latest information on the range of programs happening in Brimbank to support and empower young people.
