The Mosman Youth Development Centre is a free community service for young people of high school age accessing the Mosman area.

The Youth Centre provides a safe space for young people to relax, socialise and interact with other young people of the community.

Facilities at the Youth Centre include a VCR and television, computers and internet, pool & table tennis table, Playstation 2 and X-Box, music system, lounge and kitchen.

The Youth Development Centre also manages a number of different activities, events and programs, such as:

• Breakfast Club (during school term only)
• School holiday programs
• Summer and Winter Camps
• Annual Shoreshocked Youth Week Festival
• Alcohol and Other Drug information forums
• Sexual Health and other development information forums
• Parent networks and support groups
• Late closing on the 1st and 3rd Fridays of the month

Staff can provide information and referral for both young people and the community, they can act as an advocate for youth needs and be available for young people and adults to consult them on youth issues.

Staff have youth worker networks throughout the region, so if there is anyone with youth related issues then they are encouraged to contact the Youth Development Centre and speak to one of the staff members. If they cannot help you then they can refer you to someone else in the area.

Staff also can assist with employment and education problems, resumes and referrals to other government facilities.
