Working with Migrant and Refugee Youth: Support and Service Provision Partnerships MYSA’s commitment to service excellence and in leading best practice is based on its demonstrated ability to establish and maintain effective partnerships and relationships with a wide range of government and non-government service providers, schools, community groups, etc Engagement and Participation - Schools & Service Providers Flexible, responsive, innovative approaches to better assist schools and service providers to strategise and meet the existing and emerging needs of migrant and refugee young people.

Working with Migrant and Refugee Youth: Support and Service Provision - Young People MYSA engages young people in ongoing consultative processes and encourages their participation in all aspects of service delivery including design, development, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. Outreach MYSA can and will meet a client at their point of need Empowerment and Development MYSA recognises the right of migrant and refugee clients to participate in decision making that affects their lives to give them the best opportunities to develop solutions to their own problems. The focus should be on how they see their situation, what they see to be their needs, and what they want to see change.
