Taldumande Youth Services is a youth homelessness service in New South Wales, Australia, founded in 1976.[1]

"Taldumande" is an Aboriginal word meaning "refuge."[1]

Founding of Yfoundations

[edit]

In 1976, Taldumande along with Young People's Refuge and Caretakers Cottage, and other early NSW youth refuges, founded Yfoundations, a peak body organisation, to represent youth refuges to government.[2][3]

Going Home Staying Home

[edit]

Following the NSW Government's "Going Home Staying Home" reforms to the homelessness sector, Taldumande Youth Services joined a partnership with Mission Australia and contracted with the state to provide services in the northern Sydney region.[4] Following the reforms, Taldumande expanded its service.[5]
