“At the City of Kwinana, we’re fortunate enough to have this wonderful building that gives us the space needed to provide a selection of constructive programs to young people in the community,” Cr Adams said.
“We truly are blessed to have such a talented and engaging team of youth workers who really do love their jobs and offer great support and guidance to our young people.”
Youth engagement officer Arbie Pattiselanno was recently recognised as a certified practitioner of youth work by the Western Australian Association of Youth Work. “People often ask me how I do it and that I must really love my job,” he said.
“I can only reply that yes, you do this job, because it’s what you love.”
