SERVICE MESSAGE - IYC Young People, Families, Staff, Volunteers, Board, Student Placements and Community would like to give a big warm thank you to all who support IYC, not close the centre doors. It's with a heavy heart that IYC informs you that IYC closed its centre doors on March 1st 2024 at the location in Bundoora due to not being refunded by the government, IYC acknowledges and is grateful for the Federal Government grant to grow IYC with the centre in 2022. IYC campaigned to all tiers of government, did a fundraiser with events, went to media, had a petition, tried auspices and unfortunately could not raise enough funds to keep the centre operational. IYC will not close as a charity/service organisation and reflect to provide NDIS services, consulting work, information and referral, and program work that will be done on a smaller scale until IYC grows again and can do more and run a centre again. As the motto goes at IYC

"Believe and Create"

IYC under COVID-19: Youth Reference Group Create the Survival & Thrive Manual.

Updated: Apr 27, 2020

IYC Youth Board Member Maria Matthews and IYC Youth Reference Group (YRG) have been developing The Survival & Thrive Manual as a resource to help young people in lockdown for COVID 19 in Melbourne's North. The resource manual can be used as a guide for other regions around Australia, yet is targeted for young people in the northern suburbs with mentions of other local services and leaders. The YRG team had meetings over Facebook and zoom being innovative in these hard times, recognising that there is a need for a manual with information of community services, government initiatives, and boredom buster ideas for young people. Please feel free to use The Survive & Thrive Manual as a resource attached for COVID-19 on our IYC website in the OUR PUBLISHED RESOURCES page.
