Wellbeing Hub
Overview
The Wellbeing Hub supports rangatahi connected to Bay of Plenty Youth Development Trust and Te Aranui Youth Trust, along with their whānau. It’s about making sure young people can access the right support, when they need it most.
The Hub brings together a registered psychologist, a registered social worker and an intern psychologist. Support is shaped around each person, whether that’s one-on-one sessions, help finding stable housing, advocacy, or navigating the services around them.
