Youth Precinct

Melbourne Citymission is building a youth precinct, creating a solution to homelessness for young people in a long-term, measured and integrated way.

The Youth Precinct will be the first of its kind in Australia, offering young people the tools and support they need to break out of the cycle of homelessness and poverty. It will be a stable and secure base from which young people can gain the skills and confidence to lead independent and successful lives.

  • people to break the cycle of poverty and abuse
  • people to find jobs, or enter into education and training.
