Supporting inclusive programs and services

Our work draws on CMY’s 30+ years of experience working with young people from migrant and refugee backgrounds. 

We deliver training and professional development opportunities, provide secondary consultations, support research and advocacy activities, develop useful resources, provide consultancy services and encourage and facilitate cross-sector partnerships.   

We collaborate with a wide range of sectors, including:  

Training and Professional Development

CMY’s Capability Building Team offer in-depth training and professional development for individuals and organisations who want to build their knowledge, skills and confidence to deliver culturally responsive programs and services to multicultural young people, their families and communities, with a focus on:

  • Culturally Responsive Practice
  • Youth Settlement

We also support organisations to embed culturally responsive practice through ongoing partnerships and consultancy services that can be tailored to each organisation’s specific needs. This work ensures that young people have access to appropriate support and inclusive services. It also promotes and fosters innovation and the development of strengths-based, responsive models that lead to a more equitable outcomes for multicultural young people, families and communities.

Statewide forums

CMY hosts regular Statewide Forums for sector workers, researchers and young people to come together, network and discuss relevant topics and challenges faced by young people from migrant and refugee backgrounds, and how we can better support them. 

Some of the themes we’ve focused on at previous forums are: Youth Participation, Employment, Mentoring, Mental Health, and Inclusive Sport.
