Support for at-risk teens in Townsville

Targeted Family Support aims to give teenagers a great start to life and positive future to look forward to. We get behind young people who are living in the Townsville region, and demonstrating dangerous behaviours and are at risk of becoming stuck in the criminal justice system.

 

They might be dealing with a number of issues, including poor school attendance, risk-taking behaviour, criminal activity, and disconnection from their family and community.
