Days: Monday—Friday

Ages: 10-14 years

Broome Youth and Families Hub is pleased to offer the Target 120 service, which has been designed to work with at risk young people and their families to reduce offending behaviour. The service addresses the underlying issues that lead to offending and crime, this is identified by building strong and meaningful relationships with the young people and their families over a 12-month period. Progress and goal setting is tracked and captured through unique case management plans, developed for both the young person and the family. Each YSO works one-to-one with the young person and their family.

Target 120 prioritises culturally safe engagement, and trauma informed practice. The team assist with developing healthy relationships with family and community, whilst providing a platform to discuss any issues the family are facing. There is a large focus on re-engagement into school or education, which is achieved through the removal of barriers and supportive healthy relationships. The overarching aim of this program is to contribute to a long-term vision of creating safer and more connected communities.

BYFH has been funded by the WA Department of Communities to deliver Target 120 until June 2027.
