About the mentoring

The age range we mentor varies depending on the programme. The mentoring setting is community and iwi-based, along with youth justice. Our approach is one-to-one and group mentoring with the expectation of the mentoring relationship to last less than 6 months. Mentors meet daily or weekly, depending on the youth.
