"Matt’s approach is more than a ‘boot camp’! Matt tells

the kids his story, which encourages them to their stories."

Senator Jacqui Lambie

"Like me, Matt knows that early intervention is all, so he has branched out and founded The Youth Regiment – an organisation with a mission to combat youth crime and mental health issues early. Their program is designed to install discipline, resilience and education for young Australians, while supporting the whole family and community dynamic. I want our kids to have the support to get the skills to help them to be resilient and prepared for the challenges life throws at them."

The PhoEnix

At The Youth Regiment, the Phoenix is more than just a part of our logo—it’s a powerful symbol of transformation, resilience, and new beginnings. This legendary bird, known for rising from its own ashes, perfectly reflects the journey our teens undertake: overcoming challenges, embracing change, and emerging stronger than ever.

 

For our teens, the Phoenix represents the journey they take with us: stepping out of their comfort zone, facing obstacles with courage, and discovering the strength within themselves to start anew. It’s a reminder that with the right support, structure, and mindset, every young person has the ability to rise, grow, and reach their full potential.

 

The Youth Regiment is more than just a program—it’s a fresh start and a chance to soar.
