Find the right grant for you

Our Youth Justice crime prevention grants empower local communities and foster stakeholder collaborations to address local youth crime priorities.

Community organisations, businesses and individuals with innovative solutions to tackle the causes of youth offending in their area are encouraged to apply for a grant.

Note that our department provides one-off funding for projects. If you require on-going funding, we suggest seeking funding from an alternative source.
