TRACTION For Young People is a not-for-profit organisation striving to make a real difference to young Australians aged between 12-15 who may be at risk of disengaging from school. The organisation provides hands-on learning through projects like building bikes and boomboxes, providing an alternative learning experience where young people reconnect with education to build confidence.
So far, TRACTION has helped over 3,000 young people, delivered almost 115,000 hours of mentoring and donated nearly 2,200 bicycles to young people – but what more can be done to help young people remain engaged in learning and brightening their future?
