YouthAction Northern Ireland

80 Years Of YouthAction NI

YouthAction Northern Ireland has an 80 year history of making a significant difference to the lives of young people aged 10 -25. We work with disadvantaged, excluded youth, living in areas of social/economic disadvantage, outside traditional opportunities and those deemed as vulnerable, supporting them as active and equal citizens whose voices are heard, respected and valued. We challenge inequalities in society and build resilience in young people to improve their life chances.

 We strive to improve the quality of young people's lives and to affect change in their communities by including young people in the social and economic life of communities. We do this by targeting social need, working in partnership with communities and with those young people who are most deprived of and excluded from resources.
