Canberra Local Support Team
For Indigenous Youth Mobility Programme
What Is It?
The local support team are a team of people who offer their skills and expertise and who are dedicated to ensuring that the IYMP programme works in Canberra and other locations around Australia. It is the responsibility of the IYMP Coordinator from Indigenous Success Australia to action the recommendations from the local support team.
Currently the local support team in Canberra consists of a Young Person from the Programme, Centrelink, QUEST employment (job network), ITMS, Department of Education, Science and Training (DEST), Aboriginal Hostels Ltd (AHL) and Indigenous Success Australia (ISA).
What Do We Talk About?
The local support team talk about the progress of the young people and how they are going. They ask questions about how the young people are coping in the hostel; they ask questions about how the young people are coping in training or education. It is important to keep up to date on the young person’s attendance at the training or education site. The local support team meet every month so that issues are dealt with regularly and to review membership.
