Who it's for

 

Reconnect is designed for young people aged 12-18, who are experiencing challenges such as:

  • Family conflict or breakdown.
  • Homelessness or unstable living situations.

Our programs also support individuals aged 12 to 18 (or 21 if you're a newly arrived refugee) facing similar challenges in Penrith, Hawkesbury, or Blue Mountains areas.
