Melbourne Youth Bus

Connecting young people to safety, support and community

The Melbourne Youth Bus is a volunteer-led, after-hours mobile outreach service supporting young people across Melbourne’s metropolitan and western suburbs.

Our mission is to create safe, welcoming environments where young people aged 12 to 24 can connect, receive support, and build positive relationships within their community.

The Bus operates as a mobile drop-in centre, offering access to essential items, information, and referrals for those experiencing challenges such as homelessness, mental health concerns, family violence, or substance use.

By meeting young people where they are, the Bus provides a consistent and trusted presence — offering practical help, emotional support, and a pathway to further services when needed.

Driven by dedicated volunteers, the Melbourne Youth Bus continues to be a lifeline for young people seeking connection, safety, and hope after hours.
