The Youth Development Program is responsible for encouraging, engaging and empowering community youth across the shire. The Program strives for the continued enhancement of the long-term social, economic, and environmental conditions of their community.

The Youth Development program focusses on developing and building upon a culture of positive youth community capacity building through

• working cohesively with the existing youth services across the shire
• improving dialogue and best practice sharing between services
• opening communication around service delivery
• addressing wider community youth issues holistically
• breaking down barriers around community perceptions and access
• raising the positive profile of young people across the shire
