Lions Youth Haven 

A place where youth are valued and empowered

Lions Youth Haven is a nurturing environment dedicated to supporting young people who are disengaged, disadvantaged, or have additional learning needs. It provides opportunities for education, training, and personal growth in a safe and supportive setting.

A range of programs are delivered on-site, including the Farm Skills Education Program, The Galilee School, day programs and residential care for young people with intellectual disabilities, workplace learning for high school students, and transition housing for families in need.

At Lions Youth Haven, we’re committed to helping young people grow, thrive, and reach their full potential.

Find your own way with our youth education programs

We know that not everyone fits into the same box – and that’s okay. That’s why we do things differently. Whether a young person is finishing their studies, exploring hands-on skills, or just working out what comes next, we’re here to support them every step of the way.

We believe in creating opportunities, building confidence, and helping young people grow into the person they want to be. Our programs are designed to meet them where they’re at – with care, respect, and a focus on what really matters.

Here’s what we’re all about:

• Focusing on strengths – not just grades 
• Teaching real-world skills – things that matter in everyday life and future careers
• Building life skills – like leadership, creativity, teamwork, and communication
• Being a steady support – from people who genuinely care and believe in their potential
• Creating real impact – in their own lives and their communities
• Opening up future pathways – from further study to apprenticeships and training
• Offering new opportunities – at school, at work, or starting something brand new
• Providing a safe space – where everyone is welcome, just as they are

We’re here to help young people feel seen, supported, and ready for whatever comes next.
