Welcome to the New Zealand Youth Mentoring Network website. The Network is the national hub for the youth mentoring sector in New Zealand. We work with organisations and practitioners to to promote effective youth mentoring. We provide advice, support, access to best practice resources and training in Mentoring.
Mentoring can have a powerful and positive influence on the lives of young people as they grow and transition into adulthood. If mentoring is an area that interests you - either as a recipient, mentor, programme provider, funder or thinker we need to hear from you.
The NZ Youth Mentoring Network were delighted to be able to host chat room sessions at the recent Festivals of Education Held in Auckland and Christchurch at end of March.
