1:1 Positive Pathways

The 1:1 Positive Pathways program aims to foster positive life choices and relationships for young people who are involved in, or at risk of involvement in the youth justice system.

Originally developed by Bendigo Blue Light, our 1:1 Positive Pathways program, targets young people aged 10-17 who are involved in, or at risk of involvement in the youth justice system, including criminal offending, antisocial behaviour or as victims of crime.

The program involves a community mentor or positive role model (police/emergency services staff), eight structured individual gym sessions over 4 weeks with a dedicated fitness instructor supported by a Blue Light Victoria youth worker.

Following completion of the program, participants have access to weekly drop-in gym classes.

The program is currently available in Bendigo and will be available in Latrobe and Melbourne in 2025.

The program welcomes referrals from youth workers, parents, police, schools and community organisations working with young people
