Vulnerable young Western Australians will be supported through a range of programs delivered across the State thanks to nearly $550,000 in funding from Lotterywest.
The Youth Affairs Council of WA (YACWA) will distribute the funding to eligible not-for-profit organisations through its Youth Sector Small Grant Program.
Grants will be awarded for projects focused on early intervention and prevention to improve young people's mental health and wellbeing.
The funding is also available for programs to engage young people who are at risk of entering the youth justice system.
