Youth Ambassador
The Youth Ambassador program aims to support a young person who has utilised The Bridge Youth Service and who is committed to the opportunity, keen to learn new skills, eager for a challenge and want to make a difference in the community whilst at the same time supporting The Bridge Youth Service.
Our Youth Ambassador plays an exciting role in our organisation, using their experience and knowledge to provide feedback to our teams on how we consult with our youth.
Cassie Meloury-Mason
Youth Ambassador for 2021-2022
How did you come across The Bridge Youth Service?
I came across TBYS about 31/2 years ago looking for a play group for my sons and to connect with the other young mums.
What did/does your relationship with your worker look like?
My relationship with my past worker was amazing, she really listened to me and helped me with my life goal. My current worker is amazing as well, always encouraging me to be me and go forth and enjoy adventures in my life.
How has engaging with The Bridge changed your life?
The Bridge has made me a better mum, helped me to be better for myself. They have made me into a better person.
What does being the first Youth Ambassador mean to you?
Being a youth ambassador means so much to me. Being a young mum/young person can be somewhat hard in the world. Having the opportunity to show The Bridge and others in the community that there are different opportunities.
