Young people often tell us that, in addition to the education and supports they already receive, they want more access to practical, real-life advice &#8211; including support on how to manage one&#8217;s health, finances, employment and households.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Life Skills\u00a0videos were created by drawing on feedback that ACYP has heard directly from consultations with young people. The topics chosen are based on ACYP\u2019s consultation and polling findings, with young people reporting that they want more information on four key areas: health and wellbeing, financial management, career literacy and the \u2018making a house a home\u2019.
