For Young People

Need some help? 

Maroondah Youth Services can help young people (12-25 years old in the Maroondah area) to find support on almost any issue including school, finding a job, family issues, getting involved in the community, or if you're just having a hard time.  If we can't help, we'll find another service who can and support you to access that service.

To have a chat with one of our friendly and qualified Youth Workers, young people can drop in at EV's Youth Centre during opening hours (3.30pm - 5.30pm, Wed-Fri during school term) or call the Youth Services team on 9294 5709 during office hours (9am-5pm, Mon-Fri) to make an appointment. Alternatively you can email us.
