Youth Work

We work with young people aged 16-25 who are seeking protection or those recognised as refugee status. We value young people and believe they have the right to make decisions about their own lives and actively participate in Irish society. Our youth work supports young people to empower themselves, develop a sense of belonging and ensure their voices are heard through structured group work and one to one support. 

If you would like to find out more, get involved with or support our Youth Work programme, please get in touch with our Youth Worker, Aoife Dare
