Brisbane Youth Service (BYS) is a community-based organisation that works with homeless or at-risk young people aged 12-25 years.
Now in our 34th year of operation in 2011, BYS has provided long-term assistance to help young people make more positive choices. Our comprehensive services range across several levels of immediacy and intensity from basic needs such as food and showers through to intensive personal support.
Our organisation consists of volunteers, specialised youth workers, doctors, nurses and mental health workers amongst others in order to assist homeless and at-risk youth in any way, shape or form.
We wish our clients, funding bodies, service partners and other stakeholders a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year.
Our service is open for access by homeless or at risk young people on Wednesday, 28th December 2011 to Friday, 30th December 2011.

BYS CLIENTS MAKE MOVIES
Some of our creative young people have made short movies on what it's like being homeless, what they have learnt from being on the streets and give some wise words of advice to others who may be, or follow in their footsteps. You can watch them on BYS Clients Make Movies.
