Rangitahi Mentoring
Our youth mentoring program provides one-to-one mentoring for at-risk rangatahi who need support, guidance, and restored hauora and hope. Our team of passionate well-trained mentors journey with young people to help them achieve their goals, and find their identity and place in the world. They help them work through their trauma, create healthier mindsets and relationships, and make better life choices.
In-School Mentoring
Our well-established in-school mentoring program has been running in local schools for over five years, supporting young people facing challenges to engage with education and improve school attendance. We partner with local schools to support tamariki struggling with self-confidence, self-harm, abuse, and emotional and behavioural challenges. Our experienced, well-trained, mentors provide support external to the school to help tamariki feel safe, listened to and cared for.
Parent Mentoring
Our unique parent mentoring program provides intensive wraparound support to whanau who are overwhelmed, struggling, or facing challenging situations. Being a parent can be tough, and for some it can feel impossible. We work with families to help them develop workable strategies to achieve their goals and create the healthy family dynamic they dream of.
Financial Mentoring
Our highly-trained financial mentors provide support, perspective and advocacy to individuals and families wanting assistance to manage their finances. We create a personal plan based on their unique situation to help them get out of debt, learn how to budget, and journey towards a brighter financial future. We help them get back in the driver’s seat of their life and work towards achieving their financial hopes and dreams.
The Phoenix Project
This fully piloted new programme gives high-risk, disengaged high school-aged rangatahi the support, self-belief and skills they need to transition to a more positive future. Designed to support the growing number of our most at-risk youth who have slipped through the gaps in our education and societal systems, the Phoenix Project provides an opportunity for at-risk rangatahi to come into a whānau-centred environment where they can process their past and gain new life skills and confidence.
