Youth Development Plan 2013-2018
Below you are able to download Gawler's Youth Development Plan 2013-2018. This Plan is a set of practices used by service providers, schools, programs and communities to empower young people to reach their full potential.
Through this Plan Council commits to providing all young people within the Town of Gawler with positive experiences and opportunities that must enhance young people's strengths and capacity; affirm them as community contributors, as well as shapers of their own future. Gawler recognises young people as active citizens in our community, embraces their voices to be included in decision making.
