The Youth Participation Fund funded youth programs and activities in response to emerging needs across flood-affected communities in the Northern Rivers region of NSW. The fund provided small grants between $75,000 and $150,000 to not-for-profit community organisations. These organisations ran youth activities that facilitated social connection, enhanced community resilience, and built youth leadership, particularly in relation to disaster recovery.
The Fund was part of the Resilient Kids program, supporting young people aged 8 to 18 who were impacted by the 2022 floods. You can learn more about the successful applicants here >>

The Resilient Kids program was funded by Healthy North Coast through a grant provided by the Australian Government and delivered in collaboration with Social Futures.
