                        23 June 2022

                        As a young person-centred organisation, Youth Theatre Ireland prioritises the safety and wellbeing of the young people we work with, and promote best practice in child protection, welfare, and wellbeing in our member youth theatres.

Youth Theatre Ireland is funded through multi-annual strategic funding from the Arts Council of Ireland and as a national youth work organisation by the Department of Children, Equality, Diversity Integration and Youth. Youth Theatre Ireland is also a Creative Youth partner organisation supported by Creative Ireland.
