The Gugan Gulwan Young Men’s Mentoring Group is a tailored targeted program for young men aged 8 – 12 years. The delivery of this program is to service an unmet need for support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young men in the ACT region.

As Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young men transition into adolescence they often face additional challenges. Young Men’s Mentoring Group provides strategies and support to help the young men identify and address issues within their own self-identity, family and community.

Program content includes:

• Cultural awareness and practices
• Living skills
• Nutrition
• Healthy relationship awareness
• Identifying and building informal and formal support networks
• Social/community inclusion
• Self-confidence /self-esteem/resilience

The Gugan Gulwan Young Men’s Mentoring Group meets every Thursday from 4-6pm during school terms at Gugan Gulwan.
