MYAN ACT commenced in 2008 as a community-based network of workers and services that support young people from culturally diverse backgrounds, with coordination and secretariat support provided by the Youth Coalition of the ACT, the peak body for young people and youth affairs in the ACT. The intention of MYAN ACT was to improve support for multicultural young people, strengthen multicultural youth services in the ACT, strengthen connections between ‘mainstream’ and multicultural youth services, and raise the profile of multicultural youth issues in the ACT.
