Father Chris Riley, founder and CEO of Youth Off The Streets, has worked with marginalised youth for more than 35 years in a variety of roles including teacher, youth worker, probation officer, residential carer and principal. Father Chris Riley was inspired by the 1931 movie "Boys' Town", and at the age of 15 was determined to become a priest to take care of the kids who had no one else. After becoming a Salesian Priest, he worked for the charity Boys' Town in a variety of roles and finally as Principal. In 1991, he left Boys' Town and began to set up a variety of programs for troubled youth. The programs are always responsive to need and are designed to help young people develop the skills and qualities that will enable each young person to regain control of their own lives. Father Riley has implemented innovative behaviour modification strategies to help young people deal with a history of trauma, abuse and neglect including the Values Education Service Learning curriculum which is now available to schools across Australia as part of the YOUth Making a Difference teachers' resource. In 1997, Father Riley opened Key College, an independent High School and pioneered a flexible education delivery model to help young people living on the streets and in temporary accommodation return to school. Youth Off The Streets now operates Key College on 3 separate campuses with a fourth school, Matthew Hogan School, in the Southern Highlands. As CEO of Youth Off The Streets, Father Riley oversees the operation of over 25 programs that employ over 200 people and involve more than 600 volunteers. With only around 40 per cent of funding coming from government sources, Youth Off The Streets has become one of the largest youth services in Australia, offering crisis accommodation, residential rehabilitation, clinical services and counselling, Outreach programs, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, specialist Aboriginal services, education and family support. Father Chris Riley believes there is no such thing as a "child born bad", but acknowledges that there are bad environments, circumstances and family situations that impact negatively on our young. "We must have the courage to demand greatness from our youth"
