About us
Our Values
Youth Work Ireland Galway is a voluntary youth work organisation governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. From our centres in Galway City, Tuam, Loughrea and Ballinasloe, we provide and coordinate community-based services and supports to Young People and their families underpinned by a number of core values that guide and inform all our work. These values are based on our collective experience and expertise in engaging with young people and developing services to support their needs.
Joy
We strive to bring joy and fun to our work and to the young people we engage with in our work.
Diversity
We believe in diversity and strive to treat all people equally at all times.
Collectivism
We strive to work together, to collaborate and to support each other.
Authenticity
We strive to be our authentic selves and to support young people to express their authentic selves.
Youth Participation
We strive to create ‘real’ youth participation; the type of participation that enables young people to directly influence the development of our organisation and services.
Youth-Centred
We strive to see the young person first and foremost in the development of our services
Youth Information Live Chat
Through the online Youth Information Chat Service (YIChat), young people can access an online chat service, connecting with trained Information Staff on Mon – Fri, 4pm – 8pm and leave offline messages outside of these hours.
