Unleashing potential in young people to Live Life Wide Open
Even though over a quarter of our young people experience high mental health need, the percentage who can’t access support when they need it has risen by 77% - New Zealand Health Survey.
Our therapeutic, activity-based programs empower them to unleash their potential, helping them live life wide open as resilient, purpose-driven individuals.
Youth Encounter is a vibrant community dedicated to empowering the youth of Aotearoa NZ to live life wide open!
