Manaaki Rangatahi is a mokopuna-focused, systems change rōpū. We work alongside housing providers and youth services across the motu, using kotahitanga and collective impact to bring awareness to youth homelessness. 

Our calls to action are:

1. Right to Housing: Enshrine the right to housing by enacting legislation
2. Government Policy: Prohibit government agencies from releasing youth into homelessness
3. Prevention strategy: Develop a comprehensive strategy to prevent/end youth homelessness
4. Data Collection: Collect Data on the Size and Scope of Youth Homelessness in Aotearoa
5. Commission Research: Commission Research into the Effects of Youth Homelessness on Adult Homelessness
6. Upskilling: Invest in upscaling and upskilling youth housing/homelessness services

Through a coordinate and evidence based, kaupapa Māori approach, we aim to prevent, and end youth homelessness in Aotearoa.
