For almost 40  years Auburn Youth Centre (AYC) has been providing support to disadvantaged youth of Western Sydney and their families.  AYC supports  overe 1100 young people aged 12 -24 and their families.  Over 70% of young people supported were born overseas, coming from 55 different countries. 

Auburn Youth Centre Inc. is an independent charitable organisation governed by a Board of Directors elected by members.

Established in 1986, AYC is a service that continues to bring young people of all cultural, linguistic, religious and ethnic backgrounds together to access the Centre’s facilities and programs. We provide individualised support, activities and programs for young people aged 12-24 and their families. 

Our difference is that we are not aligned to any cultural, religious, social or ethnic group,  being open and welcoming to all young people. We cross all socio-economic groups as all our activities are free. We hope to build a harmonious community and assist in creating pathways towards a positive and healthy future for young people. We strive to break down the barriers associated with culture, language, education, economic disadvantage, established stereotypes and racism that can affect young people. Whilst open to all young people we have a soft spot for the most disadvantaged, actively seeking to support those 1 in 9 young people aged 15-24 who are neither working or in education,  those who are newly arrived in Australia and those struggling with mental health issues.

Every donation helps the next person, no matter how big or small. We thank you.
