About Weave Youth & Community Services

Weave Youth & Community Services is a place-based community-led organisation located on unceded Gadigal and Bidjigal Land in Sydney, that has been delivering a range of programs, supports and services developed with and for the community for over 48 years. 

Weave’s purpose is to empower people to change their lives, and healing and connection is at the centre of our work. Weave supports children, young people, women and families who are impacted by systemic disadvantage and intergenerational trauma. Around 70% of those we support across Weave are Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people. As a non-Aboriginal controlled organisation, Weave is strongly committed to walking alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in their ongoing fight for justice and self-determination. Our work at every level is guided by our Aboriginal Healing Framework.

About the role

The Youth Engagement Worker (YEW) supports the facilitation of current programs and events for young people that run out of Weave Woolloomooloo (WW). The YEW works with WW staff and the local community, to participate in and support the development and implementation of creative, innovative, youth-led projects, events and groups that meet the needs of young people and build the capacity and cohesion of the community. This role is key to developing and facilitating a strong focus on youth participation.
