Youth I Rangatahi

We support rangatahi to find a way through some of the tough stuff. 

We help you find ways to work towards a life that you want.

We provide a space for you to explore what matters to you and what might be getting in the way of that. 

We will support you to talk about and manage difficult feelings, and to navigate challenging relationships. We’ll work with you to reconnect with your roots and your whānau, and we’ll help you to set goals for your future and map out ways of moving towards them.
