YOUNG, BLACK AND PROUD SCHOLARSHIPS AWARDED TO LOCAL YOUTH

On Tuesday 24 September, two local young Indigenous Queenslanders were awarded the Young, Black, and Proud scholarships (YBPS) to support the pursuit of their dreams.

The scholarships are managed by the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Community Health Service (ATSICHS) Brisbane and sponsored by the Queensland Family and Child Commission (QFCC) and support the aspirations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people who require financial support for schooling, university, the arts or sporting activities.
