Gold Coast Youth Service (GCYS) is a leading non-profit youth support and specialist youth homelessness organisation. Established in 1980, we respond to the needs of marginalised, disadvantaged and homeless young people and their families across the Gold Coast Region.
We are committed to the rights of children and young people; their right to be treated with respect and understanding at all times, and that their concerns are listed to and acted upon.
