WE HAVE PROGRAMS FOR:

​

Youth Justice Program:

We provide intensive life skills,  emotional education, employment training, wisdom training, case management and other supportive services to  youth involved in youth justice, are homeless or experiencing abuse at home.  Our mission is to promote self sufficiency among the youth most in need. We offer our services to T2S programs and Restorative Justice cases.

​

Walk Of Life Training inc. (WOLTi) focus is to assist disengaged youth who have broken up schooling, are in trouble with the law, are homeless or suffer from abuse in their homes. To access the youth most in need we  work at the Brisbane Youth Detention Center (BYDC) at Wacol, where most young people are not only in detention, but also suffer Drug and alcohol addictions, have learning disabilities, mental illness, abandonment and abuse. They are also at high risk of suicide and live in families caught in the cycle of generational unemployment therefore only look forward to a life dependent on welfare. The young people at the BYDC come from many locations in Queensland. We currently assist young people from the areas of Gold Coast, Logan, Western district, Scenic rim, Ipswich and Brisbane however, this year as our capacity grows we intend to cover every area from Sunshine Coast to the Gold Coast.  We also work closely with many Youth Justice Offices and are on a few T2S reference groups, working very closely with these departments with a focus to lower the re-offense

rate of young detainees.

As a result of our work, participating with WOLTI will be completely supported in an inclusive environment, have career education, marketable employment and life skills, be employed in jobs that have defined career paths for continual growth and advancement, and will overall be more self-sufficient. They will be connected to the community, country and where possible extended family.

​

​

Mobile Assistance:

This mobile service will ensure young people who are sleeping rough, couch surfing or struggling to maintain a tenancy, can get help no matter where they are! Poor social supports can be associated with homelessness and increased risk of repeated or long term homelessness. 

​
