U-Turn, a new direction: Three graduates discuss their transformation in new video


Three graduates of Mission Australia's U-Turn program recently discussed their experiences and transformations in Mission Australia's latest short film release U-Turn, a new direction.

The U-Turn program aims to curb the thrill-seeking behaviour that pushes young people into motor vehicle theft.  Students are able to fulfill their interests in racing and mechanics in a safe, legal and fun environment.

The core component of the program is the automotive training course in car maintenance and body work, delivered at the facility's workshop. Students are provided with additional support where required including supported accommodation, personal development, employment assistance, road safety education, recreational activities (such as go-karting) and post-course support.

U-Turn follows the best practice model and business plan for the Young Recidivist Car Theft Offender Program, as specified by the National Motor Vehicle Theft Reduction Council. For more information visit http://www.uturntas.com.au or http://www.carsafe.com.au
