Youth, Sound, Mind, Style

WHAT
Youth, Sound, Mind, Style (YSMS) is a mobile one-stop shop offering music, free haircuts and accidental counselling. The project is dedicated to tackling youth disengagement, influencing young people to make positive life choices, enhancing self-esteem, building resilience and facilitating education, training, employment and civic connections within our community.

YSMS brings vulnerable young people into a community setting where they can build their confidence and self-esteem and meet peers, educators, youth workers and community members who will be the backbone to their involvement in community life and who will be a support when responding to the issues that impact their young lives.

Having a haircut, “chilling” with music, leaning and practising personal hygiene, and connecting with community are life skills that will stay with a young person for a lifetime.

Youth, Sound, Mind, Style is supported by the Government of Western Australia Department of Communities.
