The Mish is City Mission’s youth and young adult service, offering programs for young people who may be withdrawn from peers, family and friends or disengaged from education or employment.

Through mentoring and unconventional learning experiences, The Mish supports young people aged 12-25 years to build confidence and develop important skills to sustain work, education and a healthy lifestyle.

Located in The Ark, Launceston and operating during school terms, we offer a safe, inclusive, welcoming space where everyone is valued.

The Mish Programs: 

Mentoring with Mish Futures
We pair our awesome mentors with young people aged 15-25 who are looking to make a positive change in their future.

Our mentors create a safe, non-judgmental relationship, assisting young people to work towards their goals and dreams. Mentors typically meet with clients on a weekly basis for about an hour and can organise to meet on-site during school hours.

Mentoring could look like:

• Creating and working towards goals
• Resumes and job search support
• Help getting 3 free driving lessons
• Getting ID documents
• Learning new skills
• Working on confidence
