Reconnect (REALS) Engagement & Support - Djerriwarrh

  1. About this service

    Reconnect: Engagement and Learner Support (also referred to as REALS) is a  Victorian State Government program that aims to support young people to re-engage with education or employment.

    Dejrriwarrh Community and Education Services provide Reconnect services across the local government areas of Melton, Brimbank and Maribyrnong in partnership with Yarraville Community Centre. We have five Reconnect coaches who work with and support young people into education or employment.

    To be eligible for the Reconnect program young people must be:

    • Aged between 15 and 24 years at the time of registration
    • Separated from school for at least 14 weeks with no intention of returning
    • Not in full time employment for the last 12 months
    • Not in other education or training

    Additionally, if the young person is 19 and under they cannot have completed year 12.

    Referrals to the Reconnect program come from parents, schools, agencies and young people themselves. If you would like more information please contact us on 9009 7900 or reconnect@djerriwarrh.org
