The program design and delivery is supported by a group of volunteers aged 18 years and older, this is our Volunteer Taskforce (Taskies) and they are the lifeblood of Youth Parliament!
At the Y, we are open to everyone’s skillset, background and experiences and we would love for you to be part of our Youth Parliament team. As a Taskie, you can gain experience in program development and facilitation, we have opportunities to support participants in leadership, parliamentary education and recreation.
So, if you have a passion for helping young people reach their full potential, this opportunity is for you.
Register your interest to be a Taskie!
As a note: If you would like this to count as a volunteering opportunity with university, TAFE, your workplace, or Duke of Edinburgh, please contact the Youth Parliament team at youthparliament@ymcansw.org.au.
Can this volunteering count as my practical hours for my studies/work experience or Duke of Edinburgh?
I am currently juggling both work and study. Can you be flexible my schedule?
Yes, we recognise that our volunteers have other commitments outside of the Youth Parliament. We will work with you and be flexible with volunteer meeting times to best suit your schedule.
However, we require our volunteers to be available during in-person camps (in the April and July school holidays).
If you are selected to be a volunteer , please let us know your availability, including any changes to your situation, as soon as possible.
Do I need to have any prior experience or training?
