Havoc
Overview
RISK-TAKER. BOUNDARY-PUSHER. LEADER.
Havoc is a free workshop based in Frankston for 13 – 17 year olds who’ve been labelled as “disengaged” or “at-risk”.
Maybe they’re struggling and need some direction. Maybe they’re taking risks and getting into trouble.
We know these young people are *not* what they’ve been labelled.
All it takes is for them to be seen and heard. To be understood. To feel a sense of belonging and self-worth. With that, it doesn’t take long to see a huge shift in their behaviour and outlook.
