Help save a young person’s life with a regular donation
It costs thousands of dollars to fund withdrawal, rehabilitation and aftercare services for each young person. This includes a residential stay of up to 16 weeks and 6 months of care in the community with a dedicated youth worker.
With a regular donation, you will help secure these essential services, now and in the future.
The painful truth is:
Trauma
or homelessness often precedes addiction
93%
of the young people who need our help with addiction live with a mental illness, usually undiagnosed
Suicide
is the leading cause of death for young Australians
Through the support of generous donors, over 3,000 young people’s lives have been saved, with:
• Zero suicide attempts
• 100% in housing
• 80% engaged in education and employment (pre COVID)
“I’m just so grateful to the donors. You saved my life” ˗ Lily

Addiction is a tragic reality for many families.
It doesn’t discriminate and can tear even the most loving families apart. Young people in crisis need care and best practice treatment so they can get their lives back on track.
Please commit to a monthly donation now and help give young people in crisis a second chance at life. Please donate now.
Please donate to help reunite families torn apart by addiction.
