Confit Pathways

Confit Pathways

Confit Pathways is a youth mentoring organisation where all the mentors have lived experience of the justice system.

Confit Pathway’s mission is to reduce youth recidivism and deliver diversion programs for youth at risk of incarceration by providing pathways to employment and education and providing a strong sense of community and support for young people to reintegrate back into society. Their programs are designed to help shape the minds of young people in custody (or those recently released from custody); who are often from marginalised backgrounds.

2024 Pitch

Funds Raised: $51,550

Joe pitched for funding to expand the geographical location of their programs by providing live online mentoring and fitness classes from their gym in Parramatta online to rural and regional communities in NSW and across Australia. The funding will assist with creating online hubs with some of their community partners who have capacity to facilitate the space and community connection for these classes to run.
