Organisation Summary

Nowra Youth Centre (NYC) is a safe, welcoming, and inclusive space where young people can access support, advocacy, and referrals to other essential services. Our team of qualified Youth Workers takes a non-judgmental, “no wrong door” approach, ensuring every young person feels heard, valued, and supported.

Beyond support services, NYC offers a variety of free programs and activities that promote social connection, life skills, and personal growth. We run regular drop-in sessions, skills-based workshops, and school holiday programs, creating a space where young people can have fun, build confidence, and engage with their community in a safe environment.

As the only dedicated youth hub in Nowra, NYC plays a vital role in fostering belonging, empowerment, and resilience for young people across the Shoalhaven region, ensuring they have somewhere to turn, no matter their circumstances.
