About
Canterbury Bankstown Youth Service (CBYS) works with young people aged 16- 25 years old, and young families who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and who are dealing with complex issues. CBYS provides a range of support services and accommodation options, which young people can access in any capacity and at any stage of need. CBYS also delivers services on an outreach basis for delivering accommodation, counselling, case management and education program support, if this is all that is required. Clients can self-refer or be referred by other agencies/family members/friends (with consent).
