Te Tahi Youth is a youth ‘one-stop shop’ for medical, sexual, and mental health services, as well as youth development and employment support to help Christchurch’s rangatahi find their way through life. And it’s all free.

As a not-for-profit we wouldn’t be able to provide our life-affirming and life-changing services without the support of our partners. Individuals, organisations, businesses. Financial or in-kind. A partnership can come in many forms. If you are able to support our mahi, please contact Te Tahi Youth Manager Fiona Kay to discuss how we can work together to create change and provide you with a legacy you’re proud of. 

If you or a young person you know needs our help, please get in touch. To make a referral to Te Tahi Youth go to ww.tetahiyouth.org.nz.
