Who we are
Developing purposeful and productive futures.
Chosen Epics is a values-driven youth development organisation committed to helping young people build purposeful and productive futures.
We support young people through education, personal development and leadership programmes, while working with partners to strengthen their access to opportunities. Our work recognises that development continues beyond a classroom or programme: young people also need guidance, supportive relationships and a meaningful next step.
Our creative and storytelling roots remain part of our approach. They sit within a broader commitment to equipping young people for life, work, enterprise and service to their communities.
Our direction
Our mission
To develop young people through accessible learning, leadership and practical preparation, and to work with partners to connect them to opportunities for continued growth and economic participation.
Our purpose
We help young people recognise their potential, take responsibility for their development and pursue pathways that improve their lives and the lives of others.
Our approach
Growth that continues beyond the classroom.
We meet young people at different stages of their journey. Our programmes combine relevant learning with practical application, while our partnerships help participants explore what comes next.
We work with schools, tertiary institutions, community organisations and other partners to design support that responds to participants’ circumstances and aspirations.
