Yfoundations was founded in 1979 by eighteen youth homelessness services in New South Wales. The organisation was initially called Youth Refuge Action Group (YRAG), and changed its name several times over the years, including YRA, YRAA, YAA, and presently, Yfoundations. The organisation's founding members include Caretakers Cottage, Taldumande Youth Services, and Young People's Refuge, the first of the NSW youth refuges.[1][2]
