We are undertaking a review of the services we deliver to young people who live, work and play in Knox. This is part of our commitment to continually review and refine our services.

Council’s youth services currently offer a range of services including:

The Youth Hive: Council’s new dedicated space for young people aged 10 to 25 years to connect, study, relax and play. The Youth Hive is located in the brand new Knox Library at Knox Westfield.

FReeZA Committee: Knox Live is a group of young people aged 15 to 25 who plan and run music, arts and cultural events in Knox.

LGBTIQ+ focused groups: Council provides a range of groups and resources specifically designed to support LGBTIQ young people and their families.

Young Parents Group: The Knox Young Parents Group offers support, information and activities for parents under the age of 25 with a baby under 12 months.

Skill development workshops and programs: Skill development workshops and programs are activities that help young people build skills and experiences in a range of areas e.g. Advocacy training, resume writing, photography classes.

Support to parents and service providers: Council delivers a range of information forums and workshops for parents, carers, families and organisations working with young people.

Facilitation of networks: to connect youth service providers in the Outer East.

We want to hear from you what services you think Council's Youth Services should offer in the future.

More about this engagement

We will use your feedback along with other data and benchmarking that has been captured as part of the review to inform decisions about future services and programs.

For this project we will be engaging our community at the level of Involve on the International Association of Public Participation (IAP2) Spectrum.

This means we are looking to our community for their advice and ideas to help us ensure we’re delivering the best service we can. Your advice and recommendations will help us do this.
