Youth work
Youth work is carried out not only on farms, but also in schools and with targeted groups. Youth work is also mobile.
Youth centres
Participation and influence
The Rauma Children’s Parliament and Rauma Youth Council promote and communicate the views, wishes and suggestions of children and young people to the city organisation. The Children’s Parliament and the Youth Council also plan and organise various events.
Youth work in schools
School youth work is preventive youth work in secondary schools, with the aim of ensuring a safe school community where young people can thrive. It also aims to promote the participation of pupils, both at school and in their free time, and to make young people’s voices and opinions heard. These activities are planned and organised in cooperation with other youth workers and school staff.
A youth counsellor in schools is a safe and trustworthy adult who meets young people in their daily lives. They provide low-threshold support and help, and develop a sense of community and enjoyment of school. They work in a variety of ways, including after-school activities, bullying prevention, group sessions, individual counselling, events and activities, home-school cooperation – and, of course, cooperation between school and youth services.
Mobile youth work
During the summer, the Tauno mobile youth work car will be on the road on Fridays and Saturdays in the Rauma area. We are also involved in various summer events organised by the youth services. The last races of autumn 2024 will be held on Friday 20.9. and Saturday 28.9.

Rainbows in the evenings
Rainbow Nights meet on Wednesdays at the Kuovi’s Youth Centre every other week, always on odd weeks from 16-18.
The evenings are for all young people under 29 years of age from sexual and gender minorities and those who are thinking about their identity, as well as their friends. The evenings include games, art, cooking and making new friends. You are welcome to come as you are!
