In recent years, concerns about young people's disengagement from education and meaningful community networks have garnered increased public attention. This research evaluates Resolve, an early-intervention youth coaching and diversion programme developed and piloted by a leading community service in a socially disadvantaged community in Southeast Queensland, Australia. A mixed-methods, case study design combined quantitative data of pre- and post-outcome measures with field observations and semi-structured interviews to assess the effectiveness of the programme. Findings demonstrate that Resolve achieved significant positive changes and reductions in risk profiles alongside major gains in subjective well-being, motivation, goal achievement, and community connectedness amongst participants. Outreach and diversion activities created soft-entry opportunities to intensive coaching, and relational, consistent, and trauma-informed practices promoted engagement and positive outcomes. In collaboration with a range of community services, stakeholders, and government agencies, Resolve provided holistic, youth-centred support and contributed to the evidence regarding the effectiveness of youth coaching and diversion programmes.
