Founding

Yfoundations was founded in 1979 by 18 youth homelessness services in New South Wales. The organisation was initially called Youth Refuge Action Group (YRAG) and has changed its name several times over the years, including YRA, YRAA, YAA and Yfoundations (since 2011). The organisation's founding members include Caretakers Cottage, Taldumande Youth Services and Young People's Refuge, the first of the NSW youth refuges. [1] [2]
