As ever, young people are at the centre of Live4Life.

While we are well underway with 2025 activities, it's great to take a moment and reflect on the collective accomplishments of young people, their rural and regional communities, and the partner organisations during the last year.
Mental health of young people is a pressing issue worldwide and it’s worth noting there is now increasingly widespread recognition that prevention must be elevated as an urgent priority within any future youth mental health strategy. This report confirms Live4Life is well ahead of the curve, with a thoroughly tested program honed since 2010, and established reach across much of Victoria and now into Tasmania.
