YRG youth zine project launch!

Following the YRG Camp this year, our fantastic YRG have come up with a local project of a youth health zine for community - and it's ready to go!!!!!

The zine focuses on wellbeing for its first edition - and we asked community for their thoughts on the following questions:

• what message would you give your younger self about wellbeing?
• what do you do to feel calm?

the contributions from local young people and community members have been presented in the zine, to help share the helpful messages and tools people use. You may be surprised what works for other people - you may not have thought what you enjoy doing to support yourself works for others as well - you may find ideas to try next time you don't feel so good. The zine is about raise awareness on health and wellbeing that captures the voice of young people and family when it comes to health and wellbeing.

You will also find in the zine:

• what's on in Canberra
• where you can go to connect
• some staff profiles about who you may see or get help from at headspace Tuggeranong
• who are the YRG

Thank you to everyone who helped with the content provided and/or helped share the survey to gather the content shared in the first edition of the zine!

The YRG are so excited to have this released and look forward to working on Vol.2 (available in 2026)
