Who we are.
Showing up everyday for rangatahi.
Te Tahi Youth is a not-for-profit organisation guided by a Board of Trustees who are passionate about youth wellbeing. Since 1995, we’ve been providing free, accessible support so young people can get the help they need, when they need it.
What we do.
We care about young people. We care about you.
At Te Tahi Youth, you will always be seen, heard, and respected. Whoever you are now, and whoever you’re becoming, this is a place where you can be yourself. Our mission is simple: to stand alongside rangatahi in Ōtautahi, helping you build confidence, wellbeing, and a future you feel good about.
Every day, our team shows up to be your allies, supporters, and champions. Whether it’s for your health, your goals, or just having someone on your side – we’re here for you.
Our values.
The way we work, the way we listen, and the way we stand alongside young people all comes back to our C-A-R-E values:
Compassion: Your wellbeing matters. We’ll go above and beyond to make sure you get the support you need.
Acceptance: Nobody judges anybody. Te Tahi Youth is inclusive, equal, and welcoming to all.
Resilience: We stick with you through the good times and the hard times.
Encouragement: We don’t expect perfection. Progress is what counts, and we’ll cheer you on every step of the way.
