About
We support vulnerable young people aged 12–25 years, including young parents, in the Blue Mountains, Penrith and Hawkesbury to have opportunities, skills and support to actively participate in their social and economic communities. Youth crisis accommodation services include Penrith House (12–15 year olds), and Katoomba House and Richmond House (16–18 year olds). Transitional accommodation, including units, is provided for 17–24 year olds and we also provide tenancy support to help young people sustain their tenancies or obtain a lease.
