Welcome to Hopestreet
Hopestreet is a vibrant grassroots youth movement dedicated to supporting at-risk young people in Playford. For the past 10 years, we’ve been on a mission to uplift our youth—starting as a youth ministry for 5 years before transitioning to operate under Careworks, a nonprofit organisation, for the last 5 years. With the support of local community groups, the local council, and churches, we create safe, fun, and inclusive spaces that understand the unique needs of the youth of Playford.
Who We Are
Based in in Davoren Park, Hopestreet connects with over 240 young people each week through the efforts of more than 40 passionate volunteers and dedicated staff in our community hub and at outreaches. Our community faces significant challenges, including high youth unemployment rates and educational disengagement. In fact, Davoren Park and surrounding suburbs have a youth unemployment rate of 61%, which is eight times higher than the Adelaide average. Many young people in our area come from low-income families, with two-thirds not completing Year 12.
Despite these challenges, we focus on building resilience and hope among our youth. Our programs aim to provide support, understanding, and opportunities for growth for these young people.
What We Do
At Hopestreet, we’re more than just programs; we’re a thriving community! Our community hub features a welcoming social enterprise café and an op shop, serving as a safe space for everyone, especially local families. Our activities and services are tailored to meet the diverse needs of our youth, ensuring that everything we offer is accessible and inviting. Here’s a glimpse of our exciting offerings:

Our Hope
At Hopestreet, our dream is simple yet powerful: we want every young person in Playford to feel LOVED, discover their PURPOSE, and know they are CAPABLE of living out that purpose. By offering supportive environments and resources, we strive to change the narrative for our youth.
