Since Southern Youth and Family Services in Illawarra and Miller in Sydney opened
the first foyers in Australia in 2001, foyers have started to open in most Australian
states and territories. Foyers provide up to two years accommodation and support
for young people into education and employment.
Foyers provide a new way of working with young people to build and encourage their
talents. Foyers are not just about education, accommodation and support; they are
also about fundamentally changing the way we work with and view young people.
