19.01.2022 Last week the Queensland State Government announced its decision to cease the operation of the Youth Boot Camp programs across Queensland. While we are extremely disappointed with this decision I would like to comment that we are very proud of the work Beyond Billabong has done in working with young people. The work we were doing was delivering world class outcomes for young people and I would like to thank my staff for their ongoing commitment, which has gone above and bey...ond throughout this trial. Our passion has always been, and will remain, working to support the most disadvantaged in our community. While disappointed with the decision by the Government, we will continue to work with young people to provide them with the love, care and support that they need to recover from the cumulative trauma and abuse they have been exposed to and move on to have productive lives. - Boyd Curran, CEO

01.01.2022 The Beyond Billabong Sentenced Youth Boot Camp in Ingham is changing young people’s lives and reducing crime in the region. The Queensland Government’s newly released figures show that in the six months since mandatory sentencing began in the Townsville region in May, 2014 there have been on average 11 youth appearing before court on motor vehicle charges per month; the same period last year before the boot camp began there were 46 youth appearing before court on motor vehicle offences per month. This is an incredible 76% drop! An amazing effort by all at Beyond Billabong.
