• The Link Centre culture is based on practical and activity centered learning, with zero tolerance for group harm

• Each young person must take responsibility for their own attendance

• All books and equipment are supplied

• Food is supplied

• A core outcome measured for each young person is the (re)building of literacy and numeracy skills

• Parental involvement and support is fostered

• Community bridges and links complete and compliment the program and the various mainstream re-entry points for attendees
