About this survey
The Youth Affairs Council of Western Australia (YACWA) wants to hear from young people about what's important to them, what challenges they face, and how the WA government can help young people, for our 2027-28 Pre-Budget Submission (PBS).

What is this survey for?
Based on your responses, YACWA will make a Pre-Budget Submission (PBS) to the State Government. The PBS will tell the WA Government what young people are experiencing, and suggest some ways the Government could make their lives better. We will release our 2027-2028 PBS on our website in September. You can find last year's PBS here. Your responses may also inform our work with other organisations that advocate to the Government. This allows us to embed a consistent, shared understanding of what young people want across our work. Any insights shared with other advocacy bodies will be de-identified, so the information you share cannot be traced back to you.
