Youth service NEET
What is it?
Youth Service NEET is a service designed to help 16 and 17 year olds. Our vision is that young people stay in, or get back into education, training, or into work based learning.
We want young people to have the skills to get a job that will help them have a better life and a career. This service and assistance we offer is completely free with no hooks as participation is entirely voluntary.
There are many providers throughout New Zealand delivering this service and our organisation is one of the Youth Service NEET providers that operate in Christchurch.
“The more skills young people have, the more choice they have when looking for a job and the better the job the better the future.”
Canterbury providers
Youth Service providers are organisations working in our local community. They are used to working with young people and know where to get the services needed. Youth Coaches are mentors who come from a wide range of backgrounds and have a lot of skills when it comes to working with young people.
Te Runanga o Nga Maata Waka is a contract holder for Youth Service NEET in Christchurch and one of several who operate in the Canterbury region.
If you are from outside of the Christchurch area, please refer to the national youth services website, www.youthservice.govt.nz to find a provider in your area.
