Young people matter.

Glebe Youth Service (GYS) is a not-for-profit charity committed to supporting young people reach their potential, achieve their goals and contribute positively to their community. In November 2025 the members voted for GYS to become an Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisation (ACCO) as 70% of the youth identify as Aboriginal. The service has been proudly providing youth services in Glebe for 36 years.
