One of the primary purposes of the Youth Aid Council is to help prevent or relieve extreme poverty or financial hardship for young people in need.
The organisation plans its activities gradually around the world but focuses particularly on the UK.
This is done by providing or assisting in the provision of education, training, and healthcare projects and schemes and all necessary support to individuals.
The support of the Youth Aid Council is designed to enable individuals to generate a sustainable income in order to be self-sufficient in their communities.
