The Youth Hub - Christchurch

As the first of its kind in New Zealand, Youth Hub Christchurch aims to be the turning point in the lives of young people aged 10-25. Based in the heart of Christchurch, their goal is to create a communal space focused on growth and well-being, providing opportunities for all young people.​

​The Hub will replace competition with collaboration and focus on young people who have had a difficult start.​

​The plans for the Youth Hub closely align with transitioning young people from state care, fulfilling the goals of the Child and Youth Well-being strategy and improving mental health outcomes.​​
