At CREATE, we run all kinds of events across Australia just for young people in care.
From big celebrations to fun activities and workshops, everything we do is driven by what you want to get involved in. It’s a chance to meet other young people, have a great time, and be part of something that’s really yours - all for you and always free!

Each year, CREATEcelebrates World Care Day – the world’s biggest celebration of children and young people with a care experience. It’s a day to raise awareness, challenge stereotypes, and highlight the strengths and achievements of young people in care.
History of World Care Day: Now in its’ ninth year, the Care Day initiative is underpinned by a collective of nine global voice of care organisations from across the world, including EPIC in Ireland, VOYPIC in Northern Ireland, Who Cares? Scotland, and Become in the UK, Voices from Care in Wales, Fepa in Spain, Fice in Croatia, Voyce in New Zealand and CREATE in Australia all working together to promote conversations about young people defying the odds and succeeding in their own right.
The 2026 Voices in Action Conference will place young people firmly at the centre. Guided by young people from across every state and territory, the program will be shaped by those who know the system best.
Over two powerful, immersive days, participants will come together on Larrakia Land to share ideas, celebrate culture, and shape a youth-led vision for the future of care.
