Family, Child and Youth
We deliver programs under the NSW Government’s Targeted Earlier Intervention initiative, supporting people early on to make the biggest difference and enabling them to live a safe, stable, and happy life.
We recognise that education plays a part in shaping the well-being of teenagers from a physical and psychological safety perspective. In conjunction with the Love Bites program, we are dedicated to creating impactful, needs-based workshops tailored for high school students navigating friendships, relationships, self-esteem, building resilience and emotional literacy. We recognise the inherent challenge of teachers as accidental counsellors and teenagers frequently disengaging from families, resorting to self-directed learning through platforms such as TikTok. At LocalKind, we aim to address these challenges by partnering with other local service providers to provide support, education, and delivery of these workshops across various high schools.
