Our Programs

At Pathfinders, we are dedicated to supporting young people and helping them to thrive. We offer a range of preventative and restorative programs that focus on building community and connection, using strengths-based and trauma-informed approaches. Our aim is to empower young people to reach their full potential and lead fulfilling lives. We believe that every young person has the potential to succeed, and we are committed to providing the support and resources they need to make positive changes in their lives and in their communities.

Therapeutic Mentoring and Respite

  • At Pathfinders, we deliver therapeutic mentoring for NDIS and other participants. Our programs are designed to be accessible and promote pro-social behaviours, internal capacities, and community connections. Depending on the needs of the young person or group, our programs can range from a few hours to a few days in length.

School-Based Programs

  • We deliver social-emotional wellbeing and leadership programs in schools across the Top End to promote the biopsychosocial wellbeing of young Territorians. Our programs are designed to be fun and engaging while building skills and knowledge in creativity, leadership, physical activity, and emotional resilience.

Outdoor Health Programs

  • We prioritise community and youth wellbeing through outdoor initiatives that blend physical activity with social-emotional development. From nature walks and sports to hikes and fishing, we create opportunities for individuals to connect with nature, build meaningful relationships, and develop essential life skills. These efforts foster resilience, promote health, and strengthen community bonds, ensuring a vibrant and inclusive environment for all participants.

  • As a social enterprise, we are committed to reinvesting our profits into causes that reflect our core values. Our dedication to supporting young leaders in pursuing their dreams is central to this commitment. Through our youth sponsorship program, we provide mentorship and financial assistance to empower aspiring individuals. This initiative aims to cultivate the next generation of changemakers by nurturing their talents, fostering personal growth, and facilitating opportunities for them to positively impact their communities and beyond. Are you a young person that needs support with your passion? Get in touch!
