About Youth Focus Established in 1994, Youth Focus is a leading not-for-profit organisation that delivers innovative and accessible mental health services and programs across Western Australia to help young people thrive. We offer evidence-based, safe, high-quality services, at no cost, when and where young Western Australians aged 12‑25 need them most. Mentor Education We are committed to ensuring our mentors are equipped with the skills to provide a positive and supportive mentoring relationship. Before becoming a mentor, applicants must complete a 2.5‑hour training course which equips the prospective mentor with the knowledge and skills to be positive role models, as well as specific education in understanding youth mental health, self‑harm and suicide. Those who successfully complete this training are then invited to complete a graduation pack which will enable them to be added to the pool of Youth Focus mentors eligible for matching with a young person. Commitment Once a young person is matched, the mentor is committed to a period of 12 months. They meet fortnightly at a day and time suitable to both mentor and young person. Activities should be focused around ensuring conversation and interaction between the mentor and young person so they can build a relationship and develop trust. Mentors are matched to a young person depending on the young person’s needs and location. Matches may not be immediate. Eligibility Mentors must be at least 21 years of age and must not have a family member currently employed with, or accessing our clinical services at Youth Focus. Mentors must also have access to a safe, road‑worthy vehicle to transport young people for mentoring sessions and must not be a user of illicit substances or involved in any illegal activities. Applicants undertake a rigorous screening and training process to become mentors and are supported by Youth Programs Coordinators while they are a mentor, whether in an active relationship or awaiting a match. Job Details Category: Mentoring & Advocacy Commitment: Regular – more than 6 months Type Of Work: Counselling & Help Line, Tutoring & Coaching Time Required: 2‑3 hours every 2‑3 weeks for up to 12 months. Training: Training will be provided for duties relevant to the position. A reimbursement system is in place to support mentors in funding mentoring activities and travel costs. #J-18808-Ljbffr
