Mentoring through Music in Mildura

My work involves engaging local musicians who are trained as mentors to work one-to-one with young people in the school setting. My music mentors teach young people an instrument of choice, while offering support and guidance for other aspects of their life. I try to help disengaged and/or disadvantaged indigenous young people who would not normally have access to music lessons.
