The Shire of Dandaragan aims to support young people by linking them to services developed locally and outside of the area.

Jurien Bay Youth Group

The Jurien Bay Youth Group is open on Monday and Thursday afternoons from 3.30 to 5pm during school terms.  

The group is also on the look-out for volunteers to assist with facilitating youth services.

KidSport

KidSport enables Western Australian children to participate in community sport and recreation, no matter their financial circumstances.

Eligible youth aged 5–18 years can apply for financial assistance to contribute towards club fees.

Fees will go directly to the registered KidSport clubs through their participating local government.

While the primary objective of KidSport is to ensure all Western Australian children can participate in sport and recreation clubs, its secondary objective is to engage these children and their families in the community.
