Background information
Outreach youth work helps young people outside education or the labour market to find education, work or other services they need. Youth outreach workers are present among young people and offer a safe and confidential discussion with an adult. Participation in outreach youth work is voluntary for young people.
Outreach youth work also contacts young people under the age of 29 who have interrupted their studies or military or non-military service.
