I speak with the team from AFL Cape York House for Girls about their mission to connect Far North Queensland's Indigenous teenagers, who unfortunately face socioeconomic disadvantage, with quality education opportunities and solid, healthy pathways beyond school while keeping them connected to their cultures.

Waynead Wolmby is an outstanding young man from Aurukun, Cape York. He has managed to beat the nation's expectations of a young Indigenous male from a remote community and is now inspiring other youth in his orbit to live fulfilling and healthy lives.
I speak to Waynead about how unique education opportunities helped him launch a good life and how he's gone from a boy sitting in the red Cape York dirt to running marathons overseas. I also get his opinion on the Voice to Parliament proposal.

Marc Harbrow is a leader in Far North Queensland's social work sector, and has started several inspiring and wholesome entities and initiatives that focus on youth empowerment, Indigenous empowerment and community wellbeing.
As a teenager, Marc was put through perilous adversity, and he shares how he pushed through and what he did with his new lease on life.
Marc is the brains behind the successful youth engagement program the Fire Project, which motivates disengaged and disempowered children toward positive social outcomes.
In 2022, Marc and his team successfully helped more than 1000 kids in Cairns.
He also gives his opinion on what has driven the Far North's youth crime crisis.
