Settlement Youth

Helping youth connect in their new community

A fun and comprehensive youth program for newly arrived migrants & refugees aged 12-25 years.

About Our Program

At Metro Assist, we understand that settling in a new country can be challenging. That’s why we’ve designed a fun and comprehensive youth program just for you! If you’re aged 12-25 and have a refugee background, are a humanitarian entrant, or a migrant new to Australia, our programs will help you build confidence, develop skills, and connect with your new community.
