Do you have a minimum of 2 hours per week to mentor a disadvantaged young person? 🚗 🚙 The Queensland Police-Citizens Youth Welfare Association (QPCYWA) is a community-based organisation concerned with the development of youth through the provision of sporting and recreational activities. One of the many programs PCYC Queensland delivers is the Braking the Cycle program. Braking the Cycle is a learner mentor driving program that provides young people with increased employment opportunities, community connections, and road safety education. We support learner drivers without access to a supervisor or registered vehicle to complete their logbook hours. Our Mentors are critical to the success of the program and act as positive adult role models as well as driving supervisors. If this peaks your interest you can find out more about the role and apply here: https://lnkd.in/gibM9pum #PCYC #BrakingTheCycle #DriverMentor #Goondiwindi
