Building healthy, safe and resilient futures

Welcome to our in-school young male mentoring program. Led by qualified Youth Workers and running over two terms, this program focuses on building the skills necessary for young males to navigate the teenage experience. 

Evidence-based, the program is designed to hold space for 14-17 year olds to talk about everything from relationships to alcohol, leadership to vaping, self-awareness to drugs, mental health to porn.

This transformative experience equips them with the skills to navigate complex social dynamics and build a strong, positive identity. Join us in empowering these young individuals to realise their potential and shape a healthy and safe future for themselves and their communities.

Whilst it is beneficial for a teacher to be present during the program, it’s not mandatory. Teachers are always welcome, and we highly encourage it, though we do understand from time to time this is not possible. Feedback received from teachers who have stayed for the workshops includes positive reactions to the new strategies they’ve discovered to help support their students. Plus when teachers are present, our Youth Workers can then work with them to address any areas of concern or issues they may be experiencing.
We also ask teachers to be part of our evaluation process by completing a post-program survey and discussing any behavioural issues or disclosures that occur outside the program sessions. 
At the end of the program, the boys will graduate from Top Blokes. This is an important and significant milestone and we welcome teachers, principals, local funders and parents support to make this Graduation Ceremony a memorable event.
