Great partnerships create great opportunities for young people, and we're delighted to welcome back eight incredible youth partners for Larita Academy 2027.

Lighthouse Foundation, Helping Hoops, Youth Insearch, Hope Network, Youth Projects, Women and Mentoring (WAM), Skyline Education Foundation and City of Yarra.

Together, these organisations have supported more than 127 young people to graduate from Larita Academy, helping them build confidence, connections and new opportunities.

Each of these organisations plays a vital role in supporting young people across Victoria and beyond. From young people experiencing homelessness, family violence or challenges in education, to those navigating the justice system, leaving out-of-home care or overcoming personal barriers, our partners provide essential support, guidance and opportunities to help young people move forward.

Our partnerships extend well beyond the four days of the Academy. Together, we're building confidence, creating meaningful connections and opening doors to employment, education and new opportunities.

Our partners also play an important role in shaping Larita Academy, bringing their expertise and insights to ensure young people's voices and experiences remain at the heart of what we do.

We're delighted that 100% of our youth partner CEOs would recommend Larita Academy to other organisations, reflecting the value of our shared commitment to supporting young people.

We're excited to continue building on these relationships in 2027, working together to create meaningful outcomes for young people.

Stay tuned as we welcome some new faces to the Larita family!
