The Northern Territory Government is committed to investing in the future and wellbeing of young people by establishing a Youth Hub in the Northern Suburbs of Darwin, targeting 10-17 year olds and offering drop-in activity programs, mentoring and support services in a coordinated service delivery model.

Following community feedback regarding the previously proposed site at the former Casuarina Fire Station, a new permanent location of the youth hub has been identified at the Leanyer Recreation Park. Located within one of the Northern Suburbs’ popular recreational precincts, the proposed youth hub aims to be easily accessible for all young people and families across Darwin’s Northern Suburbs.
