NSW Young Carer Leadership Program 2017 – applications open

Young Carers NSW is a Carers NSW program for carers aged 25 years and under. Applications are now open for the 2017 Young Carer Leadership Program:

Are you passionate about your role as a young carer? Would you like to gain valuable leadership and presentation skills? Would you like to help raise awareness of young carers? If so, we want YOU to become a Young Carer Leader!!

The Carers NSW Young Carer Leadership Program is designed to give young carers, like you, a stronger voice in the community. Each year, we offer up to 20 places to passionate young carers from across NSW. Selected applicants are invited to Sydney for a jam packed 4 day introductory workshop to leadership, media and presentation skills. Not only will you learn and develop new skills, you’ll also get to meet other young carers and check out some of the sights of Sydney! 

Young carers aged 16-22. Young carers from all cultural backgrounds and living all across NSW (including regional and remote areas) are encouraged to apply! 

The Young Carer Leadership Program will take place between Monday 10th April 2017 – Wednesday 12th April 2017.

Applications are open until Sunday 12th March 2017!
