About this page
The VYMA is an incorporated, non-government, representative organisation of youth mentoring programs in Victoria.
The VYMA was established in 2005 in recognition that a formal structure was needed to provide support and coordination to the sector as it expands and matures. The Alliance started as a grassroots movement driven by a commitment to strengthening youth mentoring in Victoria.
Since its establishment the Alliance has become accepted as the voice of more than 200 youth mentoring programs in Victoria. Today, the VYMA provides an effective mix of consultation, professional development, resource development and advocacy.
Our members represent the entire spread of youth mentoring programs operating in Victoria, including community and school based programs.
