Policy Priorities – WA State Election 2025

The Youth Affairs Council of Western Australia is pleased to share our Policy Priorities – WA State Election 2025.

Based on consultation with young people and the sector, five key priorities have emerged to support young people, the sector and the communities that support them.

The five key priorities are: 

  • Provide cost of living and housing support to young people
  • Prioritise prevention and early intervention for young people
  • Create a strong and sustainable youth sector
  • Commit a total overhaul and reformation of WA’s youth justice system, from community to detention
  • Embed and amplify the voices of young people with lived experience in government decision making and service delivery
