Supporting young people and their communities

Youthrive Victoria provides opportunities for young rural Victorians to build knowledge, skills, leadership capacity and aspirations. We offer university, vocational and community scholarships; leadership development opportunities; mentoring; aspiration building workshops; virtual connections and wrap around care for young people as they move from school into adult lives. We require funds to operate our programs and we seek financial and pro-bono support.

Rural Youth Network

The Rural Youth Network provides an ongoing source of connection, social support, and community tailored for rural youth. Our online platform is a dynamic space dedicated to spotlighting various opportunities and events accessible to young people in their communities, as well as providing a space to connect with other young people and share resources.

Mentoring

We believe having a mentor can make a big difference in life. The purpose of the Youthrive Victoria Mentoring Program is to ensure young rural Victorians are well supported in life after school.
