Rainbow Youth
Contact: Wesley Milne (he/they)Biographical Info
- Kia ora! RainbowYOUTH is a national charity with folk working here in Taranaki too, we work with queer, intersex, takatāpui and gender diverse rangatahi between the ages of 13 – 27, their whānau and communities.
- We provide 1:1 peer support where we work alongside rangatahi to set intentions and goals then help them take steps to achieve them utilizing their strengths.
- We have a drop in centre for our rangatahi to come by, use our community wardrobe, play games and meet new folk.
- We run events in the community, from craft sessions to camps!
