Bringing services together
By having multiple organisations working together under one roof, Youth Hub Christchurch will ensure that young people receive all the help they need without any gaps or overlap in services. This approach will encourage cooperation between organisations.
Who's involved?
More than a dozen organisations are interested in being part of the Youth Hub, with the main tenants being Youthline and Te Tahi Youth.
Other organisations will also be able to book one of the seven available rooms or use the open-plan office space to meet with young people. Government agencies like Work and Income, Probation Services, Oranga Tamariki, Kainga Ora, and Careers NZ will also be invited to have offices on site for visiting staff.
The impact
We estimate these providers will be able to deliver up to 8,000 contact points for young people a year. Read more about our partners below (click on the tiles to visit partner websites).
