Young People

Young people aged between 12 and 25 years represent 17% of the population in South Eastern Sydney. Further information about young people can be found in our population profile. 

The Youth Health Program works to improve health and wellbeing outcomes and health service access for young people aged 12-24 across SESLHD, particularly those who are at a higher risk of poor health.

We work in partnership with consumers, health services and partner organisations to build the capacity of services to deliver youth-friendly healthcare, deliver health promotion and prevention initiatives for young people and ensure that young people's voices are heard in our health system.
