Feedback from Partner Organisations
“The recent online training provided by the Australian Youth Affairs Coalition was a resounding success. It was thoughtfully designed specifically for our purpose and tailored to the unique needs of our consumers and the broader Youth Cancer Services. Dean did a wonderful job crafting bespoke content that truly resonated with our consumers. The sessions were well facilitated, creating a collaborative and inclusive environment that encouraged active participation. It was fantastic to see such strong attendance from our YAG members, reflecting the value and relevance of the training. We would have no hesitation in working with AYAC again in the future and greatly value their expertise and collaborative approach.” - Youth Cancer Service
