The Young Carer Project

In every classroom across Australia, two to three students will have a caring role. The Young Carer Project believes in a school community where Young Carers have equal access to educational opportunities as their peers.

The Young Carer Project currently works with schools in Victoria and Queensland. The program adopts a whole school approach to engineer a kind, safe and supportive school environment where Young Carers can thrive. To do this, we work with key teachers and wellbeing staff, Young Carers and the broader school community, conducting training, workshops and online modules.
