Nationally, the rate of homelessness is increasing. Raw Potential exists to empower disadvantaged youth by providing non-judgmental support, coaching, and essentials such as food, clothing and bedding. We want to help break the cycle of poverty and set affected young people on a course that allows them to realise their raw potential and worth. Our outreach workers get out into the community to build trust and connections with at-risk youth by spending time in places they’re most likely to feel comfortable in. Because every young Canberran deserves the chance for a bright future.
