We are committed to supporting second generation Karen to develop a healthy identity as an Australian Karen. This includes an understanding of what it means to be an Australian and contribute to Australian life and society, whilst also understanding their Karen cultural heritage and identity.

Many second generation people have a feeling of being stuck between two worlds. That of their parents at home versus that of the world they are in at school or work. In responding to these particular needs we have experienced Karen Youth Workers from within the Karen community who understand the struggles of the younger people and support them through these challenges.

We partner with other community organisations such as foundation house, eastern community legal services, Yarranga Community Centre, and Educational Facilities in providing support and care.
