Blue EDGE

The Blue EDGE (Educate, Develop, Grow, Empower) is a program run by Blue Light in partnership with Victoria Police combining physical training, mentoring and life skills.

Delivered twice weekly, Blue EDGE includes three key components:

 

1. 30 minutes of physical training fitness circuits and team building activities

2. a shared meal

3. workshop discussion or presentation by guest speaker

 

Workshop topics are tailored to address current issues that affect young people, build skills, and create opportunities for deep conversations and shared life experiences.

 

Blue EDGE aims to reduce crime through prevention: fostering positive relationships between young people, their peers and police, engaging the participants socially, creating wider support networks and linking participants with local services and opportunities.
